Ingredients
Dipping sauce:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce
- 1 teaspoon hot chili oil
Filling:
- 1/4 pound ground pork
- 2 ounces uncooked shrimp, shelled, deveined, and finely chopped
- 1 egg white
- 1/4 cup minced water chestnuts
- 2 tablespoons minced Chinese celery
- 1 teaspoon minced cilantro leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon minced ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon sesame oil
- Dash ground white pepper
- 24 potsticker wrappers
- 3 tablespoons cooking oil
- 2/3 cup chicken broth or water
Directions
To make the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, chili-garlic sauce and hot chili oil. Mix well and reserve.
To make the filling: In a large bowl, combine, the pork, shrimp, egg white, water chestnuts, celery, cilantro, ginger, sugar, salt and sesame oil. Season with a little pepper and mix, stirring rapidly in 1 direction until the mixture is well combined and spongy.
To make the potstickers: Working in batches, lay 4 potsticker wrappers on a clean surface. Keep the remaining wrappers covered with plastic wrap to prevent drying. Put a heaping teaspoon of filling in the center of each of the 4 wrappers. Brush the edges with water. Fold the wrappers in half over the filling, pinching the edges together to form semi-circles. Put the potstickers on a baking sheet seam-side up and cover with a clean towel. Repeat until all the potstickers have been formed.
To cook the potstickers: Heat a large skillet over medium. Add about 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil is hot add half the potstickers, seam-side up. Cook the potstckers until the bottoms are golden and crisp, about 4 minutes. Add 1/3 cup broth. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the liquid is absorbed, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the cooked potstickers to a platter. Repeat, cooking the remaining potstickers.
Serve the potstickers warm accompanied by the dipping sauce.

These are delicious. Making them ahead of time and freezing them is a great idea that I would like to try. The dipping sauce is great too, the perfect amount of spice. I don't like shrimp so I replaced it with 2 ounces of additional pork. Next time I make this recipe I might try using 2 ounces of ground turkey to add a little variety instead of all pork.

These have been a bg hit with guests. I have also frozen batches with no noticeable loss of flavor or texture.

These are so good, and really pretty simple (aside from making them beautiful like Mr. Yan's, that takes a little practice haha. Serve with some hoisin and Sriracha and you can't go wrong. Anyway, big high five to Tyler for finding the Jedi Master of Asian cuisine and putting that special twist that only he can on the recipe. P.S. I added some chopped shiitake mushrooms and it worked really well.
