directions

  • In a saucepan, heat the 1 tbs sesame oil and 1 tbs vegetable oil and sauté the garlic and ginger for 1 minute of medium heat.
  • Add the shiitake, cabbage, chives, spring onion and tofu. Turn the heat to high and stir fry for 2-3 minutes. Add the soy sauce and the salt and continue to stir over high heat for a further 2-3 minutes until the excess liquid has been absorbed. Sprinkle in the corn flour and mix quickly. Transfer to a dish to cool.
  • Put a teaspoon of the vegetable mixture in the centre of each wonton wrapper and moisten the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold to make a moon shape, making a few pleats to seal.
  • Heat the 2 tsp sesame oil in a saucepan, then put in 10-12 gyoza. Cook both sides for 2-3 minutes over medium heat until well browned. Pour 1/4 cup water over the wontons and cook covered for 2-3 minutes until the liquid has been absorbed. If necessary, remove the lid and shake the pan until all excess liquid has been absorbed. Transfer to a dish and garnish with chives. Repeats with remaining Gyoza. Serve with your preferred dipping sauce.

  1. My DH and I enjoyed these very much. I added some carrots and did a mixture of green and red cabbage because I had it on hand. I put the filling in the food processor and pulsed it a few times to bring the ingredients together. The consistancy made it easier to fill and seal the wonton wrappers. Thanks for the great recipe.
     
  2. I wanted to give 5 stars, but I really felt as though there was something missing.....They were good, but I think they could be 5 star. When I fix them again, and I will, maybe I'll tinker just a bit. Thnx for sharing your recipe, Kristen. Made for the Voracious Vagabonds for ZWT6.

<p>I love, love, love to cook. Most of all I love to cook for friends and family because it is such an awesome feeling to bring the people that mean the most to me through such an essential ingredient for life... FOOD! I am a vegan the switch opened up the world of cooking in a way I never imagined! People constantly ask me 'what do you eat?' and I can confidently tell them that if they were to leave meat and dairy behind they would find an enormous world of food out there that they have never heard of! And it is all more delicious and nourishing than animal products. My ultimate goal is to shake my 9 to 5 office job and become a caterer or open my own restaurant and I am forever dreaming of my big lottery win that will allow me to do this.</p>
