I first tried these potstickers last summer, and my husband and I fell in love with them. They’ve made regular appearances at our house ever since– a true feat, since we really don’t make many meals over and over again.
I like to grind our own pork from pork loin chops in my food processor for a lower-fat option.
They are change-your-life good!
03Note: You will probably only use 1 1/2 packages of wrappers. Freeze the remaining ones for up to 3 months.
04If you are making the potstickers ahead of time, place them on a baking sheet covered with parchment or waxed paper. Place in the freezer until solid (about 30 minutes), then store in an airtight container or freezer bag until ready to use. Otherwise, use immediately.
05To cook, heat a large pan with 1 tablespoon canola oil. Place about 1 dozen potstickers in at a time, flat side down. Cook 2-3 minutes over medium-high heat until bottoms are browned. Pour in 1/2 cup water and cover with a lid. Let steam 5-7 minutes or until water is absorbed and wrappers are transluscent.
06If cooking frozen, add an additional 2-3 minutes to the steaming time.
