Japanese gyoza are delicious dumplings that originated from Chinese potstickers. They are typically made with a thin dough wrapper filled with a mixture of ground meat, usually pork, and vegetables like cabbage and garlic. Gyoza can be cooked in various ways, including pan-frying, steaming, or boiling, but they are most commonly pan-fried to achieve a crispy bottom. These dumplings are often served with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil. Gyoza are popular in Japanese cuisine and are commonly enjoyed as an appetizer or side dish in restaurants and homes alike.
