Ingredients

• 1/4 pound ground turkey
• 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
• 1 teaspoon minced green onion On the side Hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon minced water chestnuts
• 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (no seeds)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 egg, beaten
• Vegetable oil for trying
• 12 wonton wrappers (3 x 3-inch size)

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients except the egg, wrappers and oil. Add 1 tablespoon of the beaten egg. Save the rest of the egg for later. Preheat oil in a deep fryer or a deep saucepan to 375 degrees. Use enough oil to cover the pot stickers — 1 to 2 inches should be enough. Invert a small bowl or glass with a 3-inch diameter on the center of a wonton wrapper and cut around it to make a circle. Repeat for the remaining wrappers. Spoon 1/2 tablespoon of the turkey filling into the center of one wrapper. Brush a httle beaten egg around half of the edge of the wrapper and fold the wrapper over the filling. Gather the wrapper as you seal it so that it is crinkled around the edge. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
Deep-fry the pot stickers, six at a time in the hot oil for 3 to 5 minutes or until they are brown. Drain on a rack or paper towels. Serve with hoisin sauce for dipping. If you want some crushed red pepper or cayenne pepper to the sauce.
