Directions: |
Directions:Finely chop chix, and mix in bowl with sesame oil, celery, onions, sherry, cornstarch, sugar and salt.
Lay out wrappers, and place about 2 teaspoons of filling in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges with dabs of water and fold up opposite corners and pinch edges to seal. Set on a baking sheet, seam side up; keep covered until all wrappers have been filled. At this point you can freeze pot stickers, then transfer to heavy zip locks and can be kept for up to 3 months. When ready to cook, don't thaw before cooking. Cook in same way as follows.)
To cook: Heat 1 tbs oil in a wide frying pan over medium heat. Add 12 potstickers, seam side up. Cook uncovered, until bottoms are deep golden brown (5-7 minutes). Pour in 1/4 cup water, at once reduce heat to low, cover with tight fitting lid, and cook for about 6 more minutes. Remove from pan and keep warm. Wipe out pan abd repeat with remaining salad oil, potstickers and water. Serve with dipping sauce and fresh chopped green onion tops.
Ok - so here is what I do.... :)
I use ground turkey instead and I use a pound of whatever I can find - frozen in the tube and/or fresh, doesn't really matter to taste. I also add carrots, so my celery carrot amounts are about a cup each. I love onion and always go heavier than the above amount. While cooking/steaming in the water, I watch the wrapper until it gets a little glassy and see through, rather than sticking with 6 minute mark. When I cook them for a big group, when they are done I put them in a big pan and pour the sauce over all of them.
Hope there's enough time for you to format this after turkey soup night - just saw an email from our principal that said grades are due tomorrow!!!! after mild panic, got it figured out, I still have until Wednesday - phew - gotta; go get back on it! Hope you had fun tonight |
