Take note
Be careful not to overstuff your potstickers, or they might burst open while cooking. Also, keep an eye on the cooking time to ensure your potstickers don't burn. And don't forget to have some soy sauce handy for dipping!

1

Prepare the filling

In a mixing bowl, combine minced tofu, finely chopped mushrooms, shredded carrots, chopped scallions, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and a pinch of black pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.

2

Fill the potstickers wrappers

Take a potsticker wrapper and place a teaspoon of the filling in the center. Dip your finger in water and wet the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half and pinch the edges together to seal. Repeat this process for the remaining wrappers and filling.

3

Pan-fry the potstickers

Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the potstickers in the pan, ensuring they're not touching each other. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottoms turn golden brown.

4

Add water and steam

Carefully pour 1/4 cup of water into the pan. Quickly cover the skillet with a lid to trap the steam. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until the wrapper becomes translucent and the filling is cooked through.

5

Serve and enjoy!

Remove the lid and let the potstickers cook for an additional minute to crisp up the bottom. Use a spatula to transfer the potstickers to a serving plate. Serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauce, like soy sauce mixed with a dash of chili oil. Enjoy!
