Ingredients

Makes about 20 gyoza (about one-third of the filling will be left over for meatballs)
  1. About 9 oz (250 g) ☆ ground pork
  2. About 7 oz (200 g) ☆ chives and cabbage combined
  3. 1☆ egg
  4. 1 pinch☆ garlic
  5. 1 packet (2.3 g)◆ vegetable soup powder (use any mild vegetable soup powder)
  6. 2 tablespoons◆ hot water (about 30 ml)
  7. 1 teaspoon◆ soy sauce (about 5 ml)
  8. 20gyoza wrappers

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Finely chop the chives and cabbage. (I usually buy pre-chopped vegetables for gyoza.) Mix all the ◆ seasonings together in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Add the ◆ seasoning mixture to the ground pork and mix well. (The mixture may seem soft, but the vegetables will absorb the moisture.) Then add all the ☆ ingredients and mix thoroughly.

  3. 3

    Fill and fold the gyoza wrappers with the filling. For any you don't plan to cook right away, wrap them in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag to freeze.

  4. 4

    Heat oil in a skillet and arrange the gyoza in the pan. Add enough water to come halfway up the sides of the gyoza. Cover and steam over medium heat until cooked through.

  5. 5

    When most of the water has evaporated, drizzle a little sesame oil (not included in ingredient list) around the pan and cook until the bottoms are crispy and golden brown.

  6. 6

    For any leftover filling, scoop with a spoon and boil to make meatballs. Freeze these for baby food. If you freeze them with some of the cooking liquid, they won't dry out when reheated.
