Delight your taste buds with these Mushroom and Pork Gyoza! A perfect balance of crispy, savory, and tender bites. These dumplings are filled with a flavorful mixture of ground pork, shiitake mushrooms, green onion, garlic, and ginger, and lightly seasoned with Kikkoman® Sesame Oil. Paired with Kikkoman® Gyoza Dipping Sauce, they’re ready to impress in just over 30 minutes.
Crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside, these gyoza dumplings are pan-fried and steamed for the perfect texture. The umami-packed filling is easy to assemble, and the process of folding and sealing the gyoza wrappers is fun and rewarding.
Serve them hot, sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds and paired with dipping sauce for a complete experience. You can also customize the filling by incorporating vegetables or experimenting with alternative proteins. These dumplings work beautifully as an appetizer, side dish, or snack and can even be prepared in an air fryer for a crispier variation.
Tips and Tricks
- For even cooking, avoid overcrowding the skillet—cook the gyoza in batches to ensure every dumpling gets a golden-brown crust.
- If you’re short on time, you can use pre-made gyoza wrappers or substitute with wonton wrappers in a pinch.
- Try air frying these dumplings for a crispy take on traditional fried gyoza—simply brush them with oil and cook at 375ºF for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Make extra dumplings and freeze them for later. Simply reheat directly from frozen in a skillet or air fryer for a quick and easy snack.
