Vegetable Potstickers
I found this easy vegetable potstickers recipe from Ming Tsai on the Food Network site and couldn’t wait to make them. It was a bit time-consuming but so worth it because they turned out fantastic. To save time, I used our potsticker dipping sauce and sweet chili sauce that I already had in the refrigerator for dipping. My whole family really loved these potstickers, especially my daughter, who could have eaten the whole batch by herself. I served these vegetable potstickers with the Asian Style Pork Chops and Sesame Green Beans for a healthy and delicious dinner. I highly recommend this recipe.
Vegetable Potstickers:
Ingredients:
- 2 tsp canola oil, more as needed
- 1/2 small red onion, diced
- 1 cup shitake mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup of white savoy cabbage, chopped finely
- 1 cup of carrots, shredded
- 1/4 cup of chives, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- Sea salt and white pepper, to taste
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 20 round gyoza wraps
- Olive oil cooking spray
- Water
How to Make Vegetable Potstickers
Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once it is hot add the onion and mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes; add the cabbage, carrots, chives, ginger, and garlic. Season with sea salt and white pepper, to taste, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often. Taste and re-season if needed. Set aside to let the mixture cool down. Once the mixture has cooled, add the sesame oil and cilantro then mix well.
Spread out the potsticker wraps onto wax paper then scoop a small teaspoon full of filling onto the center of each wrap.
Wet the top of each potsticker wrap with a baster brush dipped in water. Fold the potsticker to make a moon shape and pinch shut with 3 to 4 pleats along the side. Really make sure they are sealed, so the filling doesn’t fall out. Repeat this process until all the mixture is used up.
Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Once the pan is HOT add the potstickers, and cook until the bottoms are browned, about 3 minutes.
Add 1/4 cup of water and immediately cover with a lid to steam the potstickers. Carefully watch the potstickers and completely evaporate the water so the bottom gets crispy again and sticks to the skillet. Serve immediately with dipping sauce. Enjoy.

I love the taste and i got mine just the same as the one in the picture. So happy.
Would it be possible to bake these? Has anyone tried this?
Anonymous,
Pot stickers should be steamed, so if you do bake them, you will need to add water after they are golden brown and then cover the baking dish with a lid to allow them to steam. Let me know how they turn out. Cheers! Pam
Hi,
These look so delicious. I was wondering where I can buy the Gyoza wraps from? Whole foods / Trader Joes / Safeway?
Most grocery stores carry them and they are usually near the produce & tofu. I bought these at a Safeway but I am sure Whole Foods would have them too. I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Pam
I am so excited to make these. I just bought the largest package of wonton wrappers from the Chinese supermarket and it is time I started doing something with them. 🙂
I love making these and have added chopped cooked shrimp to it
