(You many not need to use all of the water.)<\/p>\n<p>Roll the dough into a ball, cover with cling film and set aside to rest for one hour.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, for the prawn and pork filling, mix all of the pork and prawn filling ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until well combined. Season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Chill in the fridge until needed.<\/p>\n<p>For the gyoza skin (buying is so much easier), turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for five minutes until smooth.<\/p>\n<p>Cut the dough into three equally sized pieces and roll each into a ball. Roll out one of the balls onto a lightly floured work surface, stretching and turning the dough as you go, until the gyoza dough is as thin as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Using a 10cm\/4in cookie cutter, cut discs from the gyoza dough and repeat the rolling and cutting process until all of the dough has been used.<\/p>\n<p>To assemble the dumplings, hold a gyoza skin in the palm of your hand and add one teaspoon of the filling mixture. Wet the edges with a little water using your fingertip and seal the dumpling, pinching along the edges to create a pleated fan effect (the end result should resemble a mini Cornish pasty).<\/p>\n<p>Repeat the process until all of the filling mixture and gyoza skins have been used up, setting each dumpling aside on a plate dusted with flour.<\/p>\n<p>To cook the dumplings, heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan with a lid over a high heat. Arrange the gyoza in the pan, \u00a0leaving space between each one, and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden-brown.<\/p>\n<p>Add 100ml\/3\u00bdfl oz of water to the pan, cover with the lid and steam the dumplings for a couple of minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Give the pan a shake to release the gyoza from the bottom of the pan and continue to cook for a further two minutes with the lid off, until the filling is completely cooked through.<\/p>\n<p>Serve the gyoza immediately with a dipping sauce such as a mix of soy and lime juice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gyoza are great as a starter or small main, prawn and pork go perfectly together<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1574,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,13,14,28,35],"tags":[41,48,51],"class_list":["post-1573","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-asian-recipes","category-favourites","category-fish-recipes","category-pork-recipes","category-starter-recipes","tag-asian-recipes","tag-favourites","tag-fish-recipes"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1573","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1573"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1573\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1574"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1573"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1573"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.askyr.com\/loadsofrecipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1573"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
