These were the absolute best dumplings I've ever tasted...so flavorful! I followed the recipe exactly except for the steaming. I used a shallow pan half full of water and cooked them at a simmer for about 5-7 min. This worked really well. I also froze the leftovers as it made way too many for my husband and I..then I just thawed them in the fridge and the tasted as good as when they where fresh cooked! Great recipe!!

This was a fabulous recipe. The only thing I changed was how to cook them - I cooked them in a frying pan, with a bit of olive oil. There's definately an art to the steaming process, which I'm no good at, so I just browned them in the oil and they were great! What to do differently next time: chop and mix ingredients WELL before dinner time, even the day before, just omitt the cabbage until ready to cook so it doesn't get soggy.

These are awesome, but I can't imagine that six people could finish these! Definitely not an accurate "servings" number. I would add a bit of salt to the mixture, even with the soy sauce. I used ground turkey, and it worked out great!

This recipe was great- very tasty. My family gobbled them up. However, I don't think I'll make it again. It took way too long to make. I bought the cabbage and other ingrediants pre-chopped too. I did not have a large steamer basket so I was only able to steam 5-6 at a time. This from a package of 65 wrappers took me quite some time to cook all of them. I added lettuce to the metal steamer that I had which made them easier to remove but I found they were much more tasty fried in a little oil. I should have heeded the advice of the other reviewers of this recipe that complained about the time too. This is good but be pre-pared to spend 2-3 hours making this. Oy vey.

These pot stickers were great. I used a lot less cabbage then the recipe called for. Time consuming, but worth it!

Excellent recipe. I used the bagged slaw mix instead of chopping cabbage. They're even good as leftovers. I'm going to try ground chicken next time for a little variety. Thanks for the recipe!

Loved them. I steamed some, but they stuck together. I tried frying some in sesame oil and they turned out great.

These were really great. I love dumplings! I didn't put the shrimp in whole. I processed them with everything else and used it as filling. Very tasty. I think I would like to try my hand at finding some dumpling wrappers (different from won ton wrappers) and making these into dumplings. Thanks for submitting!

Great recipe! Easy (though time-consuming), fun, and, to our minds, authentic. Kids kept asking for more and more. I was worried about the raw pork cooking through, so after steaming them I followed another reviewer's suggestion and also fried them lightly in sesame oil (in a non-stick pan) just before serving. The only other changes I made was to halve the recipe while using close to the original amount of garlic and ginger, but we always go heavy on those. Oh, and I added a teaspoon or so of brown sugar to the filling, as well. The 12 yr old gives it a 9.5 (and he's a tough customer).

These came out pretty good for me. Since this was my first time making homemade "potstickers", I decided to cook the pork first before adding it to the rest of the ingredients. It worked ok, but I really think everything would've held together better had I just stuck to the recipe and left the meat raw. I will do that next time. I couldn't find wonton wrappers at the grocery store, so I used the "Wonton Wrappers" recipe found on this site, and they worked very well.I recommend them if you'd like to make your own. My only real complaint - making these dumplings was very time consuming. I'd make them again, as I thought they were delicious, but not any time soon :) Thank you for sharing!

I didn't actually make this, because the ingredients are almost the same as I already make. However, a few tips: -I used no cabbage, just a little finally chopped celery and opnion -while making them, put them on a lighly floured piece of waxed paper - never let the uncooked dumplings touch each other, either in storing or in steamimg - I fry these lightly after steaming and so I only steam the dumplings for about 5 minutes. If you steam over boiling water, they will be cooked in no time. -just fry for a few minutes in hot peanut oil -dipping sauce: soy sauce add some finally chopped fresh ginger few drops of sesame oil little rice wine vinegar if you have it I'm hungry. Have to go to the store to make this tommorroq

great appetizer. I reduced the amount of sesame oil to just a teaspoon, (I think a little goes a long way), and I reduced the amount of shredded cabbage. I also fried briefly the dumplings before steaming them. I find a brief browning in the pan prevents their sticking together in the steamer. I didn't have any trouble stuffing and cooking with uncooked pork, I think they come out juicier if stuffed raw, just be sure to steam sufficiently long enough to cook through. These were a big hit at the Christmas party! Thank you for this recipe.

use a dumpling wrapper (round) instead. makes them alot better. dumpling wrappers are thicker than the wonton wrappers and steam better. also as another person metioned do not let them touch. spray your steamer with pam it does help.
