Chinese Potstickers (Gotie)

  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground pork
  • 1 bunch watercress, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
  • 1/4 cup sesame oil

  4. Fold wrapper over 1/3 of way and 1/3 of way on the other side, overlapping the wrapper over the filling.
  5. Join the unfolded ends by fluting the edges-it should look like the shape of a purse.
