Vegetarian Potstickers

== Description ==
Serves 4 to 6
== Ingredients ==
* ½ pound firm tofu
* ½ cup finely shredded carrot
* ½ cup finely chopped bok choy
* ¼ cup finely chopped water chestnuts
* ¼ cup finely chopped bamboo shoots
* ¼ cup finely chopped garlic chives
* 2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
* 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
* ½ teaspoon sesame oil
* ¼ teaspoon salt
* 1 package potsticker or gyoza wrappers
* 2 tablespoons oil for frying the dumplings
== Directions ==
# Drain the tofu, cut into cubes and mash.
# Wash and prepare the vegetables.
# Combine the tofu with the remainder of the ingredients and seasonings.
# Lay out one of the gyoza wrappers in front of you.
# Dip your finger in the water and moisten the edges of the wrapper.
# Place a heaping teaspoon of filling in the middle of the wrapper.
# Fold the gyoza wrapper over the filling and pinch the edges to seal it shut (you may want to use a cornstarch/water mixture to make this easier).
# Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet or wok.
# When oil is ready, carefully add the dumplings and cook on high heat until golden brown (about 1 minute).
# Without turning the dumplings over, add ½ cup of water and cover.
# Cook for about 1 minute to cook the raw filling and then uncover and continue cooking until most of the liquid is absorbed.
# Serve the potstickers with the burnt side on top, with potsticker dipping sauce or soy sauce mixed with minced ginger for dipping.
