Porky Potstickers

So the third and final recipe from the three meals one grocery list article is for potstickers. I think they should maybe be called rolls of some kind because potstickers seem to be pouches of sorts but anywho...

This recipe was actually much easier than I expected it to be. I am no longer afraid of wonton wrappers, it's official!
So pork went in first, then the bok choy and garlic. I didn't have crushed red pepper flakes, so I used cayenne and some slightly random seasoning mix I have. I also had no soy sauce so I used Worcestershire sauce instead...
 Mixed this in with the pork and I was ready to roll!
 I followed the directions and wet one edge of the wrapper, then filled it with the mixture and rolled towards the wet edge. (I used my fingers, dipped them in water and then ran them along the edge. Don't know if that's how it should be done, but it worked great!)
Look at them all! They actually held together and looked legit. I was pretty proud!

Into the skillet! The recipe basically said to fry them off in the skillet so I brushed them with oil and I added a little to the pan just in case. I put them seam side down and then flipped when golden.
Final product plus the radish salad. I will admit I was a little skeptical about this concoction but it turns out that cilantro, radish, and lemon juice is pretty tasty. I'm not sure I would make it again, but I am glad I tested it out.  I also need to remember to add salt if I skip the soy sauce again with the potstickers. Overall good meal though!
