Ingredients

Beef Gyozas

  • 1/2 pound ground beef

  • 1/4 cup chopped scallions

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1/2 teaspoon Gefen Ground Ginger

  • 1/2 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon white pepper

  • 1 (12-ounce) package round wonton wrappers such as Gefen

  • 1 egg, beaten

  • oil, for frying

  • sweet chili sauce, for dipping

Directions

Prepare the Beef Gyozas

1.

Mix together ground beef, scallions, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and white pepper.

2.

Place about one teaspoon of the ground beef mixture into the center of each wonton wrapper. Brush the edges with egg wash, fold over, and press to seal. Form four pleated folds on the top of each wrapper and pinch firmly with moist fingers.

3.

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. (You can deep-fry or fry in about an inch of oil). Fry gyozas four about two minutes per side, or until golden. Don’t overcrowd the pan. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

4.

Serve with sweet chili sauce for dipping.

Notes:

For a non-fried option, place a parchment-lined metal baking sheet in a 375-degree-Fahrenheit oven for five minutes. Place gyozas on the baking sheet and lightly coat with cooking spray. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.

Delicious. Made these twice already and will definitely do it again. I froze a lot of them raw and then fried them fresh.
