Press GO to start step-by-step mode and keep your screen awake as you cook.
Step 1.
Pick a pan that will fit 24 dumplings. You don’t want any huge gaps and want them to fit all nicely snug.
Step 2.
Bring a medium-sized nonstick pan to medium heat and add neutral oil to the pan and swirl it all over to coat every bit.
Step 3.
Place all the dumplings in the pan, creating a circular pattern by starting from the edge and working towards the centre. Increase the heat to medium high for 2-3 mins or until the bottoms of the dumplings are lightly golden brown.
Step 4.
In the meantime, prepare a lid big enough for your pan and combine ½ cup of water with cornflour and mix well. When the dumplings have light browned, mix the water mixture and pour into the pan, adding more to fill just under half of the dumplings, quickly put the lid on and bring to a boil (this will take about 2 mins depending on water temp). Then reduce the fire to medium-low heat and cook for 5 mins. Remove the lid, increase to medium high heat for 1 min or until the excess water has evaporated leaving a lightly crispy edge. Turn the heat off and set aside.
Step 5.
Soak a tea towel in water and lightly squeeze, place onto a flat surface and plonk the hot pan on top, it will get a little steamy. This will help release the pot stickers from the pan
Step 6.
Grab a plate large enough to fit the pan, place the plate on top of the dumplings, place your hand on the back of the plate, with your other hand on the pan handle and confidently and firmly flip the plate, place it down on the table. Carefully lift the pan to reveal the potstickers.
