Categories     Vegetable     Vegetarian

Yield 20 dumplings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Pot Stickers:
1 pound butternut squash, peeled and seeded, flesh cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 scallions, white and pale-green parts only, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon grated peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon sesame seeds
20 wonton wrappers, thawed if frozen
1/4 cup canola oil
Lantern Sauce:
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 1/4 tbsp water
3/4 tsp rice wine vinegar
1/8 scant teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 garlic clove, smashed
1/8 teaspoon Chiu Chow Chili oil
drop of honey

Steps:

  • Pot Stickers: 1. Put squash, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan. Cover with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until squash is very soft, about 12 minutes; drain. Transfer to a medium bowl; mash with a fork until smooth and stir in scallions and ginger. In a separate bowl, stir together sesame seeds, 1/4 cup water, and remaining 1/2 cup soy sauce. 2. Place 1 scant tablespoon filling in the center of each wonton wrapper; brush edges with water. Bring up corners to make a triangle; press to seal. Place on a baking sheet; freeze until firm, 10 to 15 minutes. 3. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add 10 potstickers, and cook, shaking pan frequently, until bottoms are golden brown. Turn pot stickers over; very carefully (hot oil will spatter) pour in 1/2 cup water, and cover. Steam until most liquid is evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish; cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with remaining oil and pot stickers. Serve with lantern sauce. Lantern sauce: Stir all ingredients together and let stand at least 2 hours.

The pot stickers were a bit bland. Maybe I didn't use enough seasoning? The lantern sauce helped to add some flavor, but they were still a bit too bland for my liking.

These pot stickers were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred them steamed or baked instead of fried.

The lantern sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a milder flavor.

These pot stickers were a bit too time-consuming to make. I think I would have preferred to buy them pre-made.

The pot stickers were a bit dry. Maybe I overcooked them? The lantern sauce helped to moisten them up a bit, but they were still a bit too dry for my liking.

These pot stickers were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with a savory filling instead.

I had a hard time getting the pot stickers to seal properly. Maybe I didn't use enough water? Other than that, they were delicious.

The lantern sauce was the star of the show! It was so flavorful and versatile. I used it as a dipping sauce for the pot stickers, but I also think it would be great on rice or noodles.
