Preparation
-
1.In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, Hungarian sausage, onion, garlic, paprika, caraway seeds, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
2.Place a small spoonful of the filling in the center of a gyoza wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water and fold it in half, creating a half-moon shape. Pleat the edges of the wrapper to seal the gyoza. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
-
3.Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the gyoza to the skillet, flat side down, and cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
-
4.Pour water into the skillet, enough to cover the bottom of the skillet by about 1/4 inch. Cover the skillet with a lid and steam the gyoza for 5-6 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through.
-
5.Remove the lid and continue cooking until the water has evaporated and the bottoms of the gyoza are crispy.
-
6.Serve the Hungarian-style Gyoza hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Treat your ingredients with care...
- Hungarian sausage — Use a high-quality Hungarian sausage for the best flavor.
- Paprika — Opt for Hungarian paprika for an authentic taste.
- Gyoza wrappers — Make sure to keep the wrappers covered with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
Tips & Tricks
- To achieve a crispy texture, make sure to cook the gyoza on medium heat until the bottoms are golden brown.
- Serve the Hungarian-style Gyoza with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, vinegar, and a touch of honey for a sweet and tangy flavor.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of Hungarian hot paprika to the filling mixture.
- These gyoza can also be pan-fried instead of steamed for a different texture.
- Leftover gyoza can be frozen and reheated for a quick and delicious snack or meal.
Serving advice
Serve the Hungarian-style Gyoza as an appetizer or main course. Arrange them on a platter and garnish with chopped fresh parsley or cilantro for a pop of color.
Presentation advice
Arrange the gyoza in a circular pattern on a serving plate, with a small bowl of dipping sauce in the center. Sprinkle some paprika or caraway seeds on top for an extra touch of Hungarian flair.
