Vegan Potstickers

Step 1

In a large pan heat your sesame oil on medium heat. Add your ginger and garlic and sauté, while stirring frequently to infuse your oil.  After about 1-2 minutes add your mushroom, cabbage and carrots. Cook for around 5 minutes or until your vegetables have cooked down, this might almost be by half!  To the mixture add the sesame seeds, liquid soy seasoning, maple syrup, chili paste, green onions and cilantro and cook another 2-3 minutes or until there is no liquid in the pan. Remove from the heat and let cool.

Step 2

Follow the instructions on the packet and once cooked add to the vegetable mixture and stir till well combined.To put these babies together, spoon 1 heaped tablespoon of filling onto each wonton wrapper. Brush water (could also use your fingers) around the edge of the wrapper. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges inward to seal – see video reference above. Repeat till you’ve used up all the filling! Optional, oil the base of your potstickers and dunk in sesame seeds for that added crunch.

Step 3

Pour 1/4 cup of water and 1 tbsp soy seasoning into the pan and cover with a lid.  Turn heat to medium and let the potstickers steam for 3 minutes. Serve immediately with sauce.
