Menu Description:
"Six pot stickers filled with fresh ground turkey
meat
seasoned with ginger, water chestnuts, red pepper and
green onions.
They are fried and served in a basket with spicy
hoisin."
Here's a special recipe from one of the most
popular theme restaurant chains. Pot stickers are a
popular Asian dumpling that can be fried, steamed, or
simmered in a broth. Planet Hollywood has customized its
version to make them crunchier than the traditional dish,
and it's a tasty twist that I'm sure you'll love. Since
hoisin sauce would be very difficult to make from
scratch, you can use a commercial brand found in most
stores.
1/4 pound ground turkey
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced green onion
1 teaspoon minced water chestnuts
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (no seeds)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1 egg, beaten
Vegetable oil for frying
12 wonton wrappers (3 x 3-inch size)
On the side
Hoisin sauce
1. In a small bowl, combine all the
ingredients except the egg, wrappers and oil. Add 1
tablespoon of the beaten egg. Save the rest of the egg
for later. Preheat oil in a deep fryer or a deep saucepan
to 375 degrees. Use enough oil to cover the pot stickers
-- 1 to 2 inches should be enough.
2. Invert a small bowl or glass with a 3-inch diameter on
the center of a wonton wrapper and cut around it to make
a circle. Repeat for the remaining wrappers.
3. Spoon 1/2 tablespoon of the turkey filling into the
center of one wrapper. Brush a little beaten egg around
half of the edge of the wrapper and fold the wrapper over
the filling. Gather the wrapper as you seal it so that it
is crinkled around the edge. Repeat with the remaining
ingredients.
4. Deep-fry the pot stickers, six at a time in the hot
oil for 3 to 5 minutes or until they are brown. Drain on
a rack or paper towels. Serve with hoisin sauce for
dipping. If you want some crushed red pepper or cayenne
pepper to the sauce. (http://www.topsecretrecipes.com)
Serves 3 to 4 as an appetizer.
Tidbits
If you can't find wonton
wrappers, you can also use eggroll wrappers for this
recipe. Eggroll wrappers are much bigger, so you will be
wasting more of the dough when you trim the wrappers to
3-inch diameter circles. But in a pinch, this is a quick
solution.
Pot sticker wrappers can also be found in some
supermarkets, but I've found the wonton wrappers and
eggroll wrappers, when fried, taste more like the
restaurant version.
