  • 1 package of your favorite frozen dumplings/potstickers

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable or avocado oil

  • 3/4 cup water

  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

  1. Brush the bottom of a pan with dumplings in single layer, flat side down, to cover the entire bottom of the pan.

  2. Place over medium high heat and cook the dumplings into the bottoms are golden brown.

  3. Whisk the water and cornstarch together and pour into the pan.

  4. Cover and cook for 5 minutes.

  5. Uncover the pan and continue to cook the dumplings until the liquid disappears and a “crust” has formed.
