Jilly's pot-stickers . . .

 

        . . . from the recipe collection of Stephanie Morris

 

     When Mom went back to college in the early 1980’s she was befriended by a community of amazing and generous Asian students. We shared meals with them often. They taught me chop sticks techniques by putting a bowl of peanuts and chop sticks in front of me. It worked!!

     This recipe yields about 150 pot stickers. You can steam, pan fry or simmer in stock. They freeze, uncooked, very well. You can also pan fry the filling and use it with Dan-Dan noodles.
