4 large shiitake mushrooms
1 large carrot
1/3 head of cabbage
1/3 onion
8 oz. can bamboo shoots
handful parsley, chopped
1 lb. turkey sausage
1 tsp. Heinz 57 sauce
1/2 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp soy sauce
1/4 tsp chili powder
2 T bread crumbs
1/4 tsp ginger powder
1/2 tsp Mrs. Dash
Package of round dumpling wraps (you can find these next to the egg roll wrappers)
Using a food processor, chop all of the veggies finely. In a medium bowl, mix your turkey sausage with all spices and other ingredients, including your chopped veggies. You may be tempted to use an egg as a binder, but do not do that.
Put 1 T. of the mixture in the center of a wrapper. Using your finger, rub water on the top moon of the circle. Pinch together so you have a half circle. Check out some videos online if you need help in folding these.
In a large frying pan, warm up 2 T of oil over medium low heat. Place the potstickers, in a single layer, making sure not to crowd them. You may need to split these up in batches to cook. Once the potstickers are golden brown on the bottom, put 2/3rd cup of water in the pan and cover. Steam for 5-6 minutes then remove the lid. Let the rest of the water cook off. Remove potstickers and let them drain for a bit.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve with a dipping sauce. You can buy plum or sweet & sour sauce. Or try a mustard - honey or spicy. BBQ sauce might be a surprising option!
- You could have these as part of a meal. Stir fry would be a delicious option.
