  • 1 tbsp neutral oil
  • 80 ml water
  • Soy, rice vinegar and chili oil, to dip

Method

  1. 01

    Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over medium and arrange the gyoza flat-side down in a single layer.

  2. 02

    Fry undisturbed 2–3 minutes until the bases are golden.

  3. 03

    Add the water and cover immediately — stand back, it will spit. Steam 5 minutes.

  4. 04

    Uncover and let the last of the water cook off, then fry another minute to re-crisp the base.

  5. 05

    Slide out bottom-up and serve with soy, vinegar and chili oil.

From the counter: Cook them from frozen. Thawed gyoza stick and tear.
