Instructions

Vegetable Filling

Step 1

Finely chop the veggies and heat the oil in a large pan.

Step 2

Add the mushrooms, onions, and carrots and fry for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned.

Step 3

Then add the leek and cabbage with a little salt and cook for further 5-7 minutes, or until veggies are soft and cooked through, stirring occasionally, adding a little water if needed. Add the garlic, ginger, and seasonings and cook for a further minute to combine the flavors.

Step 4

Set aside to cool.

Fold Gyoza

Step 5

Add 1 heaped teaspoon of filling to the center of the dumpling wrapper. Brush the edges with water and fold the dumpling creating hand fan pattern or as desired (see step-by-step pictures or recipe video in the text above), making sure to seal the seams.

Step 6

Repeat until the wrappers are used up.

Step 7

Now you can freeze the uncooked gyoza (see recipe notes*) or cook them.
