Servings: persons

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 leek, cleaned and thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, pressed (or minced)
1/2 cup mushroom, finely chopped
1 head napa cabbage, finely shredded
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1 medium carrot, finely grated
24 wonton wrappers
Asian Dipping Sauce
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1/2 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1/2 lemon, zest of

1
Heat 2 tablespoons of veg. oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the leeks, garlic and mushrooms and cook until leeks begin to soften, about 3-4 minutes. Add the cabbage, vinegar, soy sauce, and ginger and cook, stirring, until cabbage is soft, about 3-4 minutes more. Remove from the heat and stir in the carrot. Allow the filling to cool.
2
Transfer cabbage mixture to a mixing bowl and work together until fully incorporated. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
3
To make the potstickers, lay a wonton wrapper on the work surface and put about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center. Dip your finger in a little water and wet the edges of the wonton wrapper; this will help the potsticker seal when cooking. Bring the outside edges of the wonton wrapper together over the filling and press it together to form a pouch. Continue with the remaining wrappers and filling.
4
To cook the potstickers, heat the remaining oil in a very large skillet over medium heat. Place all of the potstickers upright in the pan and cook, without disturbing them, until browned on the bottom, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water to the pan and immediately cover. Allow the potstickers to steam for about 3 minutes, then remove the skillet lid. Continue cooking until the water is completely evaporated.
5
Transfer to a platter and serve with the dipping sauce. Enjoy!
