Vegetable Potstickers (also known as Vegetable Dumplings) are little bites of happiness the whole family can enjoy. They are easy to make at home with fresh ingredients! Dip 'em in our dipping sauce for added flavor!

Vegetable Potstickers (or dumplings, as I refer to them) are a favorite at our house. We’ve like to make a meal of them, or just pop a few in the skillet as an appetizer or snack. We used to rely on take out to enjoy these perfect bites, but then Keith began making our own versions at home.  We stared with Thai Chicken & Peanut Dumplings, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that it wasn’t difficult. “Dumpling making” is now a family activity for us. It’s a great bonding experience and a fun way to personalize your meals.

Ingredients

ingredients for veggie potstickers on marble surface
  • Napa cabbage: finely chopped
  • Red cabbage: finely chopped
  • Mushrooms: we like crimini mushrooms for this recipe
  • Red pepper: finely chopped
  • Green onion: finely chopped green onion
  • Vegetable oil
  • Wonton wrappers: we used 5"square wonton wrappers

See recipe card for quantities.

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in medium skillet and add all ingredients for the filling. Cook for 2-3 minutes over medium heat.
  2. Allow to cool while preparing the dipping sauce.
  3. Once vegetable mixture has cooled, it is time to stuff wonton wrappers.
  4. Use about 1 tablespoon of mix and place in middle of wonton wrapper and dip your finger in water and run it along the outside edge of the wrap and fold over to seal the dumpling.
  5. Continue until all dumplings have been made. At this point you can cook them right away or store for later.

How to cook potstickers

  1. Heat 2 tablespoon oil in large sauté pan and place 6-8 dumplings in pan over medium high heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes, flipping once in the process.
  2. Grab a lid that will fit tightly over pan and add 2 tablespoon water. Cover and reduce heat to medium and allow dumplings to steam for 4-5 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and place on serving plate.
  4. Drizzle or with sauce or serve it on the side for dipping.

Dipping Sauce for potstickers

There are many varieties, here but we think a peanut style sauce works best for Vegetable Potstickers. Here's how to make it:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, peanut butter, rice vinegar, garlic, honey and sesame seeds.
  2. Stir to combine.

Have a potsticker party

Host a Potsticker Party your friends and family. It's a great way to involve kids in the preparation of food, and it leaves everyone with a sense of satisfaction. We like to combine veggie potstickers with our Pork Potstickers and Edamame Three Ways to create a well-rounded meal with diverse flavor.

Storage

Dumplings can be frozen for up to one month after assembly.
To cook from frozen: use the same method, however cook in oil for 4-6 minutes then add water, cover and cook 6-8 minutes.

Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Top Tip

Do not overstuff your dumplings! About 1 Tablespoon of filling is enough. If too much filling is used, it is difficult to seal them completely and they may break while cooking.

    I love potstickers, but don't make them frequently due to the faff. I've also never made veggie versions before, but they look delicious so I might have to give them a try!
