Vegetable Pot Stickers with Sesame-Ginger Dipping Sauce
Serves
Makes 30 pot stickers
Ingredients
  • Pot Stickers:
  • 5 tablespoons (75 ml) canola oil, divided
  • 8 ounces (225 g) shiitake mushrooms, caps sliced, stems discarded
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) less-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 scallions (white and light green parts), thinly sliced
  • 1 small bunch of kale, thick stems and inner ribs discarded, leaves torn into pieces (about 6 cups, or 400 g)
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 medium carrot, grated
  • 30 square wonton wrappers
  • ¾ cup (180 ml) water, divided

  • Dipping Sauce:
  • ½ cup (120 ml) less-sodium soy sauce
  • ⅓ cup (80 ml) rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) hot pepper sesame oil or toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons (16 g) finely grated fresh ginger
  • 2 teaspoons


Procedure
This recipe was designed for use with the 6-quart Instant Pot Ultra.

To make the filling, in a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of the canola oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce and scallions. Add the kale and salt, and stir to coat. Reduce the heat to medium, cover tightly, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the carrot. Let cool.

To form the pot stickers, place a heaping teaspoon of the filling into the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, fold over into a triangle, and press the edges tightly together to seal. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.

To make the dipping sauce, in a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and brown sugar.

Turn the Instant Pot® on to [Sauté]. Heat 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of the canola oil. Add a single layer of pot stickers (you should be able to fit 10) and cook until the undersides are golden brown, about 1 minute. Press [Cancel].

Add ¼ cup (60 ml) of the water. Lock the lid. Press [Steam] and cook for 3 minutes. Use the "Quick Release" method to release the steam, then open the lid. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pot and repeat steps 4 and 5 two more times with the remaining pot stickers, canola oil, and water.

Serve the pot stickers with the dipping sauce.
