Ingredients

  • 1ย  poundย  ground pork
  • 1ย  cupย  shredded green cabbage
  • 3ย  ouncesย  shiitake mushrooms, diced
  • 2ย  clovesย garlic, pressed
  • 2ย  greenย onions, thinly sliced
  • 1ย  tablespoonย  hoisin
  • 1ย  tablespoonย  freshly grated ginger
  • 2ย  teaspoonsย  sesame oil
  • 1ย  teaspoonย  Sriracha*, or more, to taste
  • 1/4ย  teaspoonย  white pepper
  • 36ย  wonton wrappers
  • 2ย  tablespoonsย  oilย  (you can use grapeseed, canola, vegetable or wok oil — just be sure to use oil that is neutral in flavor)
  • 1 1/3ย  cupย  chicken stock
  • Soy sauce, for serving

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine pork, cabbage, mushrooms, garlic, green onions, hoisin, ginger, sesame oil, Sriracha and white pepper.
  • To assemble the dumplings, place wrappers on a work surface.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add wontons in a single layer and cook until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • When they are golden brown on both sides, add 1/3 cup chicken stock to the pan, turn the heat down to low, cover, and cook for another 2 minutes. This ensure the filling cooks completely.
  • Remove wontons with a spider, place on a heatproof platter and keep in the warm oven.
  • Clean the pan in between batches by pouring in water and allowing the pan to deglaze a bit. This will prevent your pan, and the wontons, from getting charred.
  • Repeat until all the wontons are cooked. Serve immediately.
  • Serve immediately with soy sauce, if desired.
  • To freeze, place uncooked wontons in a single layer on a baking sheet overnight, and place in your freezer. Once completely frozen, transfer to freezer bags. Freezing the wontons first prevents them from sticking together.
  • Let them thaw for about 10-15 minutes before cooking.
