Aloo gobi mixture
Simply put, aloo gobi is a basic combo of potatoes and cauliflower stir fried with aromatic spices. To make this classic Indian dish, start with spluttering cumin seeds followed by sautéing onions. Potatoes and cauliflower are then stir fried in an array of beautiful spices like ground turmeric, ground coriander, and red chili powder. Add a sprinkle of salt while cooking. When tender, sprinkle with garam masala and coriander leaves.
Make aloo gobi potstickers
I’m using gow gee wrappers to make these potstickers. You can also use wonton wrappers or regular dumpling wrappers to make them. You’ll need to place a little amount of the cooled aloo gobi mixture in the middle of the wrapper, and pleat them in a particular design to seal the wrapper. Don’t forget to watch the video to learn more about the special pleating technique.
Cook potstickers
The prepared potstickers are first fried and then steam cooked to achieve the perfect texture. To do this, heat up a little oil, fry the wrappers until they get a golden base. Then add a little water to the pan, cover and cook for a few minutes. Now, remove the lid and continue cooking until the water evaporates. And done. Perfect potstickers to delight your taste buds.
Although potstickers are usually served with a soy-vinegar dip, I like pair these Indian spiced potstickers with vibrant and spicy momos chutney. A delectable combo indeed!
