Instructions

  1. Cook the rice: rinse, add 320ml water, bring to a boil, cover on lowest heat 12 min, steam off heat 5 min.
  2. Make the filling: combine the minced pork, grated ginger, grated garlic, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl. Mix well with your hands until combined.
  3. Fill the gyoza: place a wrapper on a clean surface. Wet the edges with a little water. Add a heaped teaspoon of filling in the centre — don't overfill. Fold in half and pinch the top to seal, then make 4–5 small pleats along one side to create the classic crescent shape. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Place the gyoza flat-side down in a single layer. Cook 2–3 min until the bases are golden brown. Pour in 80ml water (careful — it will spit), cover immediately with a lid, and steam for 4–5 min until the water has evaporated and the tops are cooked through.
  5. Remove the lid and cook another 1 min to re-crisp the bases.
  6. Make the dipping sauce: mix 1 tbsp soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and chilli oil. Dress the shredded cabbage with a little sesame oil, salt, and sesame seeds. Serve the gyoza over rice alongside the slaw, with dipping sauce on the side.

Recipe notes

The pleating takes a few tries to look nice — don't stress about it. Even a basic seal works. The crispy base and steamed top is the important part.
