Easy Gyoza (Pan Fried Dumplings)

INGREDIENTS:

• Store-bought gyoza wrapper
• Oil, for pan-frying
• Water, for steaming

For the Filling:

• 8 oz ground pork
• 2 oz cabbage, shredded and cut into small pieces
• 1 thumb-sized ginger, peeled and grated
• 1 clove garlic, peeled and grated
• 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 1/2 tablespoons Mizkan (Bonito Flavored) Soup Base or 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1/2 tablespoon sake
• 3 dashes white pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon chopped scallion, green part only
• Pinch of salt

For the Ponzu Dipping Sauce (Optional):

• 4 tablespoons Mizkan AJIPON® Ponzu or regular Japanese Ponzu
• 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil

Cooking Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine all the ingredients in the Filling and blend well. The Filling should be sticky and cohesive.
2. In a dipping bowl, combine the Ponzu with the sesame oil. Stir to blend well.
3. To assemble the gyoza, place a piece of the gyoza wrapper on your palm or a flat surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the Filling onto the center of the wrapper. Dip your index finger into some water and moisten the outer edges of the dumpling wrapper. Fold the gyoza over, press and seal the left end. Use your thumb and index finger to make a pleat. Pinch to secure tightly. Repeat the same to make the pleats. (Start with 3-4 pleats if you are a beginner). A nicely wrapped gyoza should have a crescent shape.
4. Heat up the oil in a skillet or stir-fry pan over medium heat. Arrange the gyoza  and cover with the lid. Pan-fry the gyoza until the bottoms turn golden brown and become crispy. Add about 1/4-inch water into the skillet or stir-fry pan and cover the lid immediately. The water should evaporate after a few minutes. Continue to cook the gyoza for a couple of minutes to crisp up the bottoms.
5. Remove the gyoza from the skillet or stir-fry pan and serve immediately with the Ponzu dipping sauce

Easy Crab & Pork Siomai Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 lbs ground pork
• 12 ounces crab meat
• 3 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 large egg
• 1 medium sweet onion, minced
• 1 cup minced carrots
• 1 pack won ton wrapper
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tsp salt
• Cooking oil spray
• 5 cups water (for steaming)

Cooking Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pork and crab meat. Mix well using a spatula or long wooden spoon.
2. Add the sesame oil, egg, salt, pepper, onions, and carrots. Continue to mix until all the ingredients are properly incorporated. You can even mix using your hand if you feel comfortable doing this.
3. Scoop around 1 to 1½ teaspoon of mixture and place at the middle of a wonton wrapper.
4. Fold the wonton wrapper to cover all the sides. Make sure that you leave the top open. Do this step until you are down with the last shumai. If you need more guidance on this step, this pork siomai recipe cooking video might be helpful.
5. Spray cooking oil on the base of a bamboo or metal steamer to avoid the shumai from sticking. I use Pam cooking oil spray all the time, but feel free to use whatever brand suits you. If you do not have a cooking oil spray around, you can spread about a tablespoon of cooking oil using a paper towel.
6. Arrange the shumai on steamer. Make sure that you leave a little space in between each piece to prevent the shumai from sticking to each other.
7. Pour the water into the steamer and let boil.
8. Steam the crab and pork shumai for 20 to 25 minutes.
9. Remove from the steamer and serve with ponzu or soy sauce and a lemon dip.
10. Share and enjoy!

Chicken Lumpia

Chicken Lumpia

400  grams boneless chicken breast, ground or minced

1 pc. medium size onion, minced

1 small carrot, minced

3  stalks of parsley, finely chopped

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp sesame oil

1 large egg

1/2  tsp iodized salt

a pinch of  freshly ground pepper

25 pieces “lumpia” or spring roll wrappers

1 cup vegetable oil

Cooking Instructions:

1. In a deep mixing bowl, thoroughly combine minced chicken, onion, carrot, celery, salt, and ground pepper
2. Add in soy sauce, sesame oil and eggs. Carefully stir them in with the meat mixture until everything is held together. Taste and adjust salt and/or ground pepper as necessary
3. Take about 1 and ½ tbsp of the fillings and wrap to about half an inch diameter spring roll. Continue rolling and wrapping until you consumed all the mixture. This is good for about 50 pieces spring rolls
4. In a wide non-stick frying pan, heat the oil and fry the spring rolls in batches. Cook both sides in moderate heat until golden brown.  Note that having the correct oil temperature is really important. Have it too hot and the wrapper will burn, cook over insufficient heat and oil will enter the roll
5. Thoroughly drain excess oil from the fried “chicken lumpiang shanghai” using layers of table napkin or you may place it in a stainless strainer
6. Transfer in a serving platter. Serve them hot and crisp along side with your choice of dipping sauce such as tomato ketchup, sweet chili sauce, spiced vinegar or any of your choice
