Hi Kim, you probably could steam them without frying them first. Reducing the greens makes a difference because they can lose as much as 90% of their volume — if you were to fill the dumplings with raw spinach and then cook them, you might find that they’re almost empty once cooked.

Also, do you *have* to reduce the greens, can you just put them in and wont they just cook while they steam in the dumpling?

Enjoy! They wrappers are not complicated, just time consuming.

Mmm, thank you for the dumpling wrapper recipe! I always buy wrappers but I would much rather make them. I guess I need to make some soon, now!

I am also a vegetarian and my body has never been in a very good shape. Being a vegan can really make you much heathier.

Thanks, Schmooot! No reason they shouldn’t be good for you. If you don’t want to use a microwave, you’ll have to reduce the greens some other way, such as by steaming them or quickly pan-frying them on the stovetop. However, I’ve read various accounts that say vegetables retain the most nutrients when steamed in the microwave … so, up to you.

These look quite good…and good for you as well, as long as you leave out that nasty part in the middle about the microwave….ugh

Hey Liz! I just made the potstickers with the mushroom/tofu/ginger filling and they were delicious! I will be making them again soon. Even my boyfriend who is a meat-lover enjoyed these! Thank you for the wonderful website and recipe!
