Cabbage1½ cups, finely chopped
Spring onion (green onion, scallion)2 stalks, finely sliced
Ginger2.5 cm, grated

Method

6 steps
  1. 1Salt the cabbage, leave 10 minutes and squeeze dry in a cloth.
  2. 2Mix the prawns, cabbage, spring onion, ginger, garlic, 1 tbsp soy sauce, sesame oil, cornflour and pepper.
  3. 3Put a teaspoon of filling on each wrapper, wet the edge, fold and pleat into a crescent. Press out any air and seal firmly.
  4. 4Heat the oil in a kadai to 170°C. Test with a scrap of wrapper. Slide the gyoza in gently, away from you, 6 at a time.
  5. 5Fry 3 to 4 minutes, turning, until golden and blistered. Lift onto a rack. Cut one open to check the prawns are pink and opaque all through.
  6. 6Mix the remaining soy sauce with the vinegar and lemon juice and serve the gyoza hot with the dip.
