INGREDIENTS
Filling:
1 package firm tofu
1/2 head of cabbage
1 cup of diced mushrooms
1 medium carrot
1 Tbls sesame oil
3 cloves garlic
Same amount of ginger
1 Tbls soy sauce
1/2 Tbls vegan Worcester sauce
1/2 Tbls sake
Half a vegetable stock cube
2 Tbls corn starch
36 gyoza papers
Gyoza sauce:
4 Tbls soy sauce
3 Tsp rice vinegar
Chili oil if you want to make it spicy
Directions:
1. Mince or dice finely the cabbage, mushrooms, carrot, garlic and ginger. Heat the sesame oil in a frying pan, add the minced cabbage, mushrooms, carrot, garlic, ginger and the pressed tofu. Once the vegetables start to soften, add the soya sauce, worcester sauce, sake and vegetable stock. Mix everything and cook a few mins to allow the flavours to blend.
2. Add the potato starch a little at a time, mixing well. Turn off the heat, and leave the mixture until it’s cool enough to touch.
3. Fill the gyoza papers with the vegetable tofu mixture and press the edges together.
4. Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan. Place the gyoza seam side up in the frying pan in two or three lines (depending on the size of your frying pan). Add a little water to the pan (up to around 1/3 of the height of gyoza). Cover the pan and cook over high heat.
5. After almost all the water has gone, remove the lid and wait until the bottom of the gyoza brown and remaining water has cooked away. Mix the sauce ingredients, dip your gyoza and EAT!
