Using ideas from several pot sticker recipes, I made up this recipe using items from my refrigerator. They were yummy. Be sure to make the dipping sauce too! Note that you can freeze these before cooking them. Then, cook them just as described below although the cooking times will be longer.
Ingredients:
14 oz firm tofu, cut into small cubes
2 carrots, peeled and grated
1/4 onion, peeled and grated
1 T. toasted sesame oil
1 T. soy sauce
1 egg, lightly beaten
gyoza wrappers or egg roll wrappers cut into quarters
Directions:
Mix the first six ingredients in a bowl with a potato masher. Put a small amount of filling in the middle of each wrapper. Using your finger, wet the outer edge of the wrapper and then fold over to make a triangle. To cook, place a pan over medium-high heat. Add about a tablespoon of oil. When the oil is heated, add the pot stickers to the pan and cover for about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of water, turn to medium heat and cover for 2 minutes. Uncover and turn to high heat until all water has been evaporated. Enjoy with the dipping sauce below.
Dipping Sauce:
Mix together soy sauce, toasted sesame oil and vinegar to taste.
I will be posting recipes from my everyday life. These will include ones that I've found in magazines, cookbooks or even made up myself. I usually try to spice up all recipes so I'll include that information too. If you end up trying one of these recipes, please write comments to let me know what worked, what didn't work and what new and interesting thing you tried.
