gyoza, anyone?

i finally made gyoza last night. i'd been dreaming about cooking it even before i saw a how-to video on youtube.

preparing the vegetables and crimping the dumplings was so much fun. but i was a little disappointed with my finished product. although i obtained the yummy looking brown crisp on the bottoms, the gyozas were melded together and were difficult to unstuck from the pan. i must have placed them too close and cooked too many at one go... 21 pieces at once!

but, presentation aside, i think it was a success. it all disappeared in snap and my mom asked me how much it would cost if she'd sell it per piece. (haha)

but i think its a little too early for that. i reviewed the video and found out i missed one tasty ingredient, the ginger. of course, i substituted other ingredients and eye-balled the measurements. still, have about 15 pieces left over which i put in the freezer for later. next time, it'll definitely look like these guys:




when i get it perfectly, i'll post my recipe and a picture here.

:D
