1 pkg. Gyoza wrappers (you can buy them at an Oriental food store)
1 lb. Ground chuck
1 lb. Ground pork
1 cup finely grated cabbage
2 Tbsp. finely chopped garlic
1 onion, finely chopped
Salt & pepper to suit taste
Thoroughly mix all ingredients except the wrappers. Place a small amount of the mixture in the middle of each wrapper, fold over and seal edges. Fry in small amount of grease in skillet with lid on (so it steams and fries at the same time).
Sauce for gyoza:
Soy sauce
Sesame oil
Mirin (rice wine vinegar)
Ground red pepper
Sorry I don’t have quantities for this. It’s mostly soy sauce with just small amounts of the sesame oil and Mirin and then a sprinkle of the red pepper. You just have to experiment to get it like you want it to taste.
Mrs. Humiko Ross gave me this recipe when we were in Okinawa. She was our landlady when we lived off-base.
