1 lb ground pork
a few finely chopped spring onion
1 small finely chopped shallot
1-2 cloves of garlic (she used it from about 1 1/2 tsp from a jar)
2 inches ginger root, finely chopped
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 1/2 tsp corn starch
salt and pepper
1 package wonton/potsticker wrappers, square or round
Mix it all together and put in potsticker wrappers. Fold the wrappers and seal the edges tightly (you can use water but be careful b/c they are going into hot oil.) Deep fry. Serve as an appetizer or with rice. Delicious with soy sauce or Mae Plow's Sweet Chili Sauce.
*Okay really, I usually put a layer of oil in the pan and flip them. Sometimes I employ the two pan method: I let the potstickers fry in one pan and then I move them to a second hot pan where some of the oil can drain off. When she taught me, she just let the pork cook during the frying process. This can be tricky if your oil is too hot. Ocassionally I cook the pork mixture before I fill the potsticker wrappers.
