Ingredients

  • 1 small head of green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 2 carrots, grated
  • 1 green onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Oil for pan-searing
  • Dumpling wrappers (wonton or similar)

How to Make

To prepare these delicious Cabbage Dumplings Crispy – Pan-Seared and Healthy, start by combining the finely shredded cabbage, grated carrots, chopped green onion, diced mushrooms, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a mixing bowl. Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, then season with salt and pepper. Mix everything until well combined. Next, take a dumpling wrapper and place about a tablespoon of filling in the center. Moisten the edges with water, then fold the wrapper over to seal it securely. Repeat this process until all wrappers are filled. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, and add the dumplings, making sure they don’t touch. Cook for about 3–4 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy. Add about 1/4 cup of water to the pan, cover, and steam for an additional 5 minutes. Serve hot with fresh cilantro on top!

Tips

  • Adjust the filling by adding your favorite vegetables or protein.
  • For additional flavor, consider adding spices like chili flakes or five-spice powder.
  • Make sure to seal the dumplings tightly to prevent filling from leaking.

Make-Ahead

You can prepare the filling a day in advance, stored in the fridge. Assemble the dumplings when ready to cook, ensuring freshness!

Storing

Store leftover dumplings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.

Freezing

These dumplings freeze beautifully! Lay them out on a baking sheet in a single layer, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months.

Reheating

To reheat frozen dumplings, steam them straight from the freezer. Alternatively, pan-searing them with a little oil and a splash of water works well!

Serving Suggestions

Serve these Cabbage Dumplings Crispy – Pan-Seared and Healthy with a side of soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Pair with a refreshing salad for a complete meal!

For easy preparation, consider using kitchen gadgets like a dumpling maker from Amazon.
