Recipe Instructions

In a large bowl mix pork, shrimp, green onions, water chestnuts, light soy sauce, wine, ginger, cornstarch, sugar, and sesame oil. Have a small bowl of cold water handy. Place about 2 teaspoons filling in middle of each wonton skin. Dip finger in water and moisten edge of wonton skin, fold in half over filling to form a crescent shape, and pinch edges together to seal. As potstickers are completed, lay in 1 layer on a sheet of waxed paper. Film a large, heavy skillet with peanut oil and heat over burner set to medium until oil is fragrant. Place 1 layer of potstickers in pan, seam side up, and fry gently until bottoms are golden brown (about 6 minutes). Pour in the 1/4 cup water, immediately cover pan and reduce heat to low, and cook 10 minutes. With a slotted spatula place potstickers on serving platter and keep warm. Repeat until all potstickers have been cooked. Place vinegar, soy sauce, and hot chile oil on table.
