Step 1
Finely chop green onions and grate ginger. In a bowl, mix pork, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, and ginger until well combined.
Step 2
Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper. Moisten edges with water, fold, and pleat to seal tightly.
Step 3
Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange potstickers in a single layer, flat side down.
Step 4
Cook until bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Carefully pour in water, then cover immediately.
Step 5
Steam for 8-10 minutes until water evaporates and filling is cooked through. Uncover and cook 1-2 minutes to re-crisp bottoms.
Step 6
Slide onto a plate, crispy side up. Garnish with extra sliced green onions if desired. Serve hot with soy sauce for dipping.
