I didn't have all the ingredients in the original recipe so I'll tell you what I did:
Filling:
1 lb ground turkey
2 cloves of minced garlic
2 tsp sesame oil
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 chopped onion
salt and pepper
pinch of ground ginger
a few drops of hot sauce
Mix all ingredients together in bowl. See that wasn't so hard.
Wrappers:
1 egg beaten
1/3 cup water
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
-Beat egg. Add water and mix together.
- In separate bowl mix flour and salt. Create a well in the center and slowly add in egg and water combo. Mix well. If it is too dry add in 1 tsp water at a time until it forms into a pliable dough. (I needed to add 2 tsp of additional water to make it the proper consistency.)
-On a lightly floured suface need dough until elastic. Cut into two balls. Cover with a damp towel and allow to rest for at least 10 mins.
- Cut each ball into about 6 six pieces. Roll each piece out as thin as you can without it ripping. I found this to be the most challenging part. The dough is a bit firm and keeps pulling slightly back on itself. Cut it into a few pieces that seem appropriate size (I made some large and some small). Fill each with filling (small 1/2 tbsp, large 1tbsp). Pinch edges together.
-I chose to fry mine in oil. A couple gulgs of veg oil in a frying pan about 350 degrees (med-high heat). Be careful the oil doesn't get too hot or it will pop and burn you or just burn your potstickers. Cook on each side for 2-3 mins, turn once. Serve hot with a small bowl of soy sauce for dipping. I served it with a salad and white rice.
-Enjoy!
Reviews:
My kids loved the meat inside. Only my toddler refused to eat the wrapper. This was my mom's first time trying them and she adored them. She lost count of how many she ate. My hubby and I were also big fans and this dish has made it to the master list of dinners I make on a regular basis.
