I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
NOTE: You will get approximately 30 dumplings from this recipe. The exact number depends on the size of your dumplings so you may find you have some leftover filling or leftover wrappers. It is impossible to say exactly how much as everyone will make their dumplings a different size, that is why this is an approximate number.
1. Place ginger and garlic cloves into TM bowl and chop for 5 seconds on speed 5. Scrape down the sides of bowl and repeat once.
2. Add coriander, cabbage, chicken, soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper to the TM bowl and blend for 5 sec/speed 6 or until mixture is smooth and blended together.
3. Lay wrappers out on a flat surface and using a teaspoon or 2 of mince mixture on each wrapper, fold dumplings to your desired shape. The amount of mixture you use will depend on the size and shape of your wrappers but keep in mind you do not want to overfill as it will make it harder to fold and seal. You can use a dumpling maker if you aren't comfortable folding them by hand. Keep folding until you have no mixture left - this gives me anywhere from 30-35 dumplings, depending on the size and shape of the dumplings.
4. To cook the dumplings as pot stickers (pan fried dumplings) heat a tablespoon of oil in a fry pan then add the dumplings, pleated side up, and cook uncovered for about 2 minutes until the base is golden brown. Then turn the heat down and add approximately half a cup of water to the pan, cover and cook for 6 minutes. Total cook time will be slightly longer if you have made larger size dumplings.
5. This recipe can be used for steamed or boiled dumplings too - adjust or add any ingredients you like, it's very forgiving. If you want to boil them, add dumplings to a saucepan of boiling water or soup/broth and cook for 6 minutes.
6. For steaming - oil your varoma and place dumplings inside varoma dish and/or tray, fill the TM bowl with 1 litre of water and steam for 10 minutes/Varoma/Speed 3.
7. Serve immediately with sliced cucumber, coriander leaves, chilli oil or your favourite dumpling sauce, such as soy sauce, black vinegar etc.
Tip
Dumplings can be made ahead of time and kept in the fridge for 2 days. Or they can be frozen - lay a piece of baking paper between each layer to prevent them from sticking together.

Recipe is created forTM 6
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl. -

If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

My first time making potstickers, thank you for sharing an easy and delicious recipe!
Kaneo: thanks, that is fantatsic! I use this recipe for all kinds of dumplings too
kylou: thank you so much! Now I want to go to Melbourne and have dumplings lol
ericastan: Thank you and I'm glad you enjoyed them! Yes the recipe can be used just as steamed dumplings or pan fried or boiled. They're delicious either way 🤤
These are absolutely delish!! The whole family gobbled them up. They steamed up beautifully in the varoma and such a taste bomb. They did not need frying at all, just delicious straight from the steamer. Thank you for a great recipe, these will be on high rotation in our home!!
These are delicious and easy to make. I leave the coriander out and they taste just like the ones we get in Melbourne. I have made them at least one a week since I found this recipe. Thanks for sharing.
These were sensational in flavour! I have used them as pot stickers and also in a dumpling soup. Thanks for a great recipe!
Helen Craftstuff: Thanks! I hope you like my recipe. Yes you cook them from frozen and just add 3-4 minutes extra cooking time
I love pot stickers! If you freeze them, do you cook them from frozen and if so how much longer do you have to steam them?
