# Steps:
01 -
Stir everything for the dipping sauce in a bowl until blended, then set aside for later.
02 -
In a bowl, combine ground meat, shredded cabbage, egg, the white part of green onions, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and seasonings. Mix thoroughly.
03 -
Take a heart-shaped cutter and make shapes out of the wonton wrappers. Lay them under a damp towel while you finish up.
04 -
Lightly wet the edges of your heart-shaped wrapper, spoon in the filling, and place another wrapper on top. Seal the edges. Keep assembled ones in a single flat layer under a damp cloth.
05 -
Heat butter and oil in a large pan. Add potstickers with some water, cover, and steam for 3-5 minutes. Crank up the heat to crisp both sides.
06 -
Plate with thinly sliced red cabbage, sprinkle sesame seeds and green onions on top, and serve with dipping sauce on the side.
# Notes:
01 -
Cover raw potstickers with a damp towel so they don’t dry out.
02 -
Don’t pile uncooked potstickers—they’ll stick together.
03 -
Work in smaller batches to avoid overcrowding your skillet.
