GYOZA（餃子）- Japanese Style Jiaozi

When I was kid, I always used to help my mum to make gyoza, especially in a part of wrapping filling with dough. Because my mum made this China-oriented gyoza about 70 pieces for family, so she needed any help to prepare dinner. (She counted 10 pieces for each member of family).

A pack of dough which was bought in supermarket. Filling which consists ground meat(pork), garlic, ginger and leek was made by my mum. I wrapped filling with dough, and then my mum fried in a large chinese pan.

Such as curry with rice, Hayashi(hashed beef) with rice, hamburger steak, this Gyoza is one of my nostalgic dishes that so many times on the table when I was kid.

Gyoza is available at chinese restaurant and ramen-shop everywhere. Not only as side dishes but also as  Gyoza lunch set. Gyoza, rice, soup and pickles. Delicious and it costs only about 500yen.

I love to try new gyoza everywhere, since each gyoza has different taste.

If I add to that, Japanese businessman or ojisan also seemed to love gyoza, they enjoy gyoza while drinking beer after work. Even you are not ojisan, it would be fun enjoying a glass of beer and a dish of gyoza with other small dishes in a small cozy chinese restaurant.

Try it!
