What is a Potsticker?

Potstickers are steam fried dumplings made with round wrappers and stuffed with a variety of fillings. They are basically dumplings that are cooked so that they are slightly crispy on the outside. You can find potstickers stuffed with chicken, pork, vegetables or other fillings. They are often served with a soy dipping sauce.

  1. This is AMAZING!!! I didn’t have curry paste so as a commenter suggested I used tomato paste and curry powder. I also added a dollop of peanut butter per another comment. DELICIOUS!! I’ll definitely make this again!

  2. This was instantly one of my favorite soups ever. Thank you for sharing. Also, it was very simple to make, with ingredients I usually have on hand and it came together very quickly.

  3. I have used this recipe many times and love it!! I have tweaked it slightly and it’s one of my go to soups now. My changes:
    Add- 
    Bok choy 
    Peanut butter (melted w water) 
    Fish sauce

    I like the PB because it gives it a little pad-Thai feel and the bok choy adds a nice little crunch/bitter. And if you’re cheap like me, I make my own “curry paste” by mixing tomato paste and curry powder 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m sure it’s better with the real stuff but you gotta do what you gotta do 😉

  4. Wayyyy too much onion and this recipe needs some major tweaking. I made it and wasn’t thrilled. I omitted fully half the onion…next time I’d quarter it.

    The good:

    -It’s spicy enough
    – Most of the flavors are on point
    -The cilantro garnish adds flavor dimension- without it it would be bad.
    – Having a recipe to follow for once was good because I was cooking with no sense of smell or taste (COVID ugh)

    The bad:
    – Very greasy
    – Too much onion- like waaayyyy too much.
    -Where’s the ginger?

    Overall I think I will riff on this quite a bit. Good foundation but it needs a lot of work…

    1. Hi Carla! I’m sorry to hear you didn’t like this recipe. You said that you currently have no taste of smell so not sure how you can adequately rate a recipe with no taste or smell. But I always appreciate the feedback. This is a popular recipe that has always received good reviews so it’s a bummer you didn’t like it.

  5. Hi! Are you supposed to add the dumplings to the soup pot while they’re frozen? Or do you cook them according to the package instructions and then add them to the soup? Thanks!
