What is Gyoza?

Gyōza are a very popular dish in Japan. They are the Japanese take on Chinese potstickers, with rich garlic flavor. Most often, they are seen in the crispy pan-fried form ( yaki-gyōza ), but they can be served boiled ( sui-gyōza ) or even deep fried ( age-gyōza ), as well. Gyōza are usually served with soy-based tare sauce seasoned with rice vinegar and/or chili oil ( rāyu ). The most common recipe is a mixture of some combination of minced pork, cabbage, Asian chives, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger, which is then wrapped into thinly rolled dough skins.
