For the potstickers: In a medium bowl, mix together the pork, cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and black pepper.

Have a small bowl of water near and dip your finger into it.
-
4
Run your wet finger around the outer perimeter of the potsticker wrapper.

5
Fold the wrapper over the pork mixture to form a half-moon.

Then seal the edges with a fork, using firm but gentle pressure.

7
On a tray dusted with cornstarch, set filled potsticker down firmly, seam side up, so that it will sit flat.

9
In a large, deep skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat.
-
10
Swirl the oil to evenly coat the bottom of the pan.
-
11
Add half the potstickers (do not overcrowdif your pan is not big enough to hold half the potstickers comfortably, then split them into 3 batches instead), seam side up, and cook until bottoms are golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes.

12
Add 1/3 cup of chicken broth, then reduce heat to low and cover the pan.
-
13
Cook until potstickers are tender and liquid has evaporated, about 6 to 8 minutes.

Note: Because potstickers can be time-consuming to make, I always double the recipe and freeze half of them.
-
18
To freeze, simply spread potstickers on a pan dusted with cornstarch, and then cover with foil.
-
19
Once they are frozen, transfer them to a freezer safe container or baggie.
