What's a party without potstickers? Lay out these onion- and shrimp-filled ones and watch them disappear.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped cilantro, (leaves and stems)

  • 4 green onions, coarsely chopped

  • 400 g frozen shrimp, thawed, peeled and patted dry

  • 4 tsp minced ginger

  • 1 tsp sesame oil

  • 400-g pkg dumpling wrappers

  • ¼ cup canola oil, divided

Instructions

  • Pulse cilantro and green onions in a food processor until chopped. Add shrimp, ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil. Pulse until shrimp is coarsely chopped, about 10 pulses. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Fill a small bowl of water and set aside.

  • Place 2 tsp of filling in the centre of 1 dumpling wrapper. Lightly brush edge with water. Fold edge over filling to form a half moon, pressing to seal. Crimp edge, if desired. Place on prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.

  • Heat 1½ tbsp of the canola oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium. Add ⅓ of the potstickers, bottom-side down, and cook until browned, about 3 min. Add ⅔ cup water and increase heat to medium-high. Cover and cook until potstickers are cooked through, about 8 min. Uncover and cook, swirling the pan until water evaporates and bottoms are crispy. Transfer to a serving plate, wipe pan clean and repeat with remaining potstickers.
