Vegetable potstickers, also known as jiaozi, are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. This delectable dish is made with a savory filling wrapped in a thin, chewy dough called a wonton wrapper. The filling typically consists of vegetables, such as cabbage, carrots, and mushrooms, along with seasonings, herbs, and spices. The potstickers are then pan-fried until golden brown and crispy on one side and tender and juicy on the other. Whether you prefer them steamed or fried, vegetable potstickers are sure to satisfy your taste buds.

VEGETABLE POTSTICKERS
Steps:
- Toss the cabbage with 1/4 teaspoon salt and let stand for 10 minutes. Add the cilantro, ginger, sesame oil, scallions and garlic and stir to combine.
- Fill a small bowl with water. Lay a gyoza wrapper on a work surface and spoon a scant tablespoon of the cabbage mixture into the center. Moisten a finger with water and rub it along the edge of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper over to make a triangle or half-moon shape, then seal with your fingers, trying to push out any air as you go. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Arrange the potstickers in the skillet in concentric circles and cook until the bottoms are light golden, about 2 minutes. Carefully add 1/4 cup water to the pan; cover and cook until the liquid has evaporated, the wrapper dough is tender, and the undersides of the potstickers are golden brown, about 6 minutes.
- Transfer the potstickers to a serving platter, crispy-side up, and serve with ponzu sauce.

Steps:
- Make the dipping sauce: in a medium bowl, add the rice vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, green onions, sesame oil, and crushed red pepper flakes and whisk to combine.
- Heat oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion, ginger, and garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes.
- Add the asparagus, carrots, peas, and cabbage, and stir. Season with salt and pepper, and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.
- Add the spinach and cook until wilted. Remove the filling from the heat and transfer to a large bowl to cool to room temperature.
- Once the filling is cooled, add the chives, soy sauce, and sesame oil, and stir until well combined.
- Place 1 tablespoon of the vegetable mixture onto a gyoza wrapper. Dip your finger in water and run it around the edge of the wrapper.
- Fold in half and pinch together, pleating the dough as you go.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over low heat and add the dumplings. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until a crust starts to form on the bottom. Pour ¼ cup (60 ml) of water in the pan and cover with a lid. Steam for 6-8 minutes, then remove the dumplings from the pan.
- Repeat with the remaining dumplings.
- Enjoy!
