Chinese Dumplings, Gyoza, Potstickers
It doesn’t matter what you call them. I absolutely love them. When it comes to having Chinese food from a restaurant, I always have to order Gyoza. Usually I would have to order Chinese food from a restaurant just because I wanted these yummy little snacks.
That’s until I started Restaurant at home. Now I try to make everything from scratch because it usually cost me least money than a restaurant and I don’t have to deal with all the preservatives.
I found this great Chinese dumpling recipe online at About.com. Instead of using pork, I substitute ground chicken for the pork. I also like to add slivers of carrot to my mixture.
I have also seen people use ground duck, lamb, mushrooms, and even cheese. I guess when it comes to dough and a little water your imagination is the limit. I know that I’m going to have a great time finding things to create my own restaurant at home.
Do you like Chinese dumplings, Gyoza, or Postickers? What are your favorite fillings if you make them at home?
