Who knew pot stickers would were so hard to make?!




Have you ever made these? They are made with won ton wrappers and stuffed with meat and cabbage and seasonings ( i didn't use the cabbage though). And dipped in a sauce we used sweet and sour.

They were soo yummy BUT a pain in the booty.

I used every pan I own except one (the one that I really should throw away!)

The first batch, I did as the directions say. Fry one side then steam in water.. UMM yea they STUCK and fell apart. Not sure what I did wrong, but that batch was GONE! K said "that's why they call them pot stickers" lol cute!

2nd batch I decided to fry like the first batch then put in the oven, I like them crispy all over. (I put them on a cooling rack on a baking sheet to keep them crispy all over). That batch I burnt on the bottom because I was also making myself something to drink. 2nd batch GONE!

the rest I payed attention too and turned out great! Hubby had 3 helpings and K and I got our fill and we still have 4 or 5 left. I made steamed rice and I bought so sushi to go with them...

Have you ever made pot stickers? WHat is the secret?

I suppose I can keep doing them in the oven after browning the bottom.

They are so much work to fill and fold ect. Whew... but they are worth it.

Happy Friday all :)
