Pot Stickers

We have been working on perfecting a vegan pot sticker recipe. It is sooooo delicious!

Pot Stickers

We used this Seitan Recipe we just leave out the salt. It is salty tasting without it, and I'm not a huge salt fan anyways. I use this Worcestershire Sauce recipe.

1 pkg gyoza wrappers

1 log of seitan (see recipe above)

1 package of mushrooms

3 broccoli florets 

1 large carrot

1 bunch green onion

1 T sesame oil

1-2 cloves garlic

1-3 t fresh ginger

2 jalapenos

1 T soy sauce

1 T rice vinegar

1) Make seitan according to recipe put in food processor and set aside.

2) Put mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, jalapenos, and green onion in food processor. Heat sesame oil over medium heat. Put garlic and ginger in wok just until garlic is fragrant (be careful not to burn) then add vegetable mixture and saute until mushrooms are soft. Add seitan, soy sauce and rice vinegar. Take pan off heat. You can add cornstarch and water if you would like, it helps the mixture stick together better. Let mixture cool.

3) Lay Gyoza wrapper on counter, add 1 spoonful of mixture center of wrapper. Dip your finger in water and run it around the edge of wrapper (helps wrapper stick to itself). Then fold wrapper in half and press edges together, pushing out as much air as you can. Continue until all wrappers are used (we typically run out of wrappers before we run out of filling, you can just freeze the filling for a later date). 

4) Arrange then in a non stick pan that has a light coating of sesame oil over medium high heat until bottoms are browned, then turn them over to cook the other side. 

5) Once they are browned add 3/4 cup hot water to the pan and cover with lid immediately and turn up to high heat. Leave them for 7 minutes or until all the water is gone.

6) If you can't eat them all at once they keep in the fridge for about 3 days and in the freezer for about 3 months. We usually serve them with soy sauce. Enjoy!
