Best Vegetarian Pot Stickers

Recipe #32783 | 1½ hours | 30 min prep | add private note

By: Izzy Knight
Jul 1, 2002

If you like Chinese dumplings, these vegetarian pot stickers will blow your mind!! They are very easy to make (contrary to what people may think) and dumpling skins are available even in Western supermarket now. This recipe should use up one package of round dumpling skin and enough to serve a big crowd as appetizers. You can make these dumplings way ahead of time and defrost and pan-fry them just before serving. A recipe by Ming Tsai.

Very good, and so fresh! I used green onions and shiitakes, cut the pepper back to 1/2 tsp. The cilantro was subtle but added something special, I would not skip it. A tip- the wonton wrappers seal easily if you dab a bit of water around the edges with your pinkie. And for the person who asked, no need to flip them. After you cover them with water, they will steam the rest of the way and puff up nicely. Glad to hear these freeze well. Thanks!

    These did not do much for us. They were all right, they turned out nicely, but overall, they were too chive-y, and my family found that the pepper had too strong of a taste. We probably won't make these again, unless we are craving something with chives.

    OH. MY. GOD. Can I just say that BF and I just gobbled up ALL OF THESE!?!?!?! Granted, we hadn't eaten all day but WOW, I think I won't have my cholesterol checked this week like I'd planned These were WONDERFUL! Really great! Be sure to really slam that lid down right away when you're throwing the water in the pan so you don't get completely covered with boiling grease! Also, I couldn't find shiitake mushrooms at the normal grocery store and the ethnic ones were all closed so I just used normal raw sliced mushrooms. Didn't have chives or garlic sprouts either, so I just used green onions! These are PHENOMENOL--served with sushi and some hoisin and S&S sauce as condiments.

    These were very good. I love vegetarian pot stickers, and they are so hard to find in restaurants. It is really worth finding the shiitake mushrooms for this recipe. They give it a great flavor. I added a little soy sauce to the mix. I may add a little fresh minced garlic next time. Thanks for a great recipe. I will be making these often!
