(Insert delicious adjective) Pot Stickers

I don't usually make posts about any meal that I haven't made more than once; these turned out so perfect on the first go, that I just had to write about them. I really thought that these were going to be a pain-in-the-ole-behind to make, but they were actually very easy. Yields about 15.

Ingredients
3 C. All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
1 C. Warm Water
1 Lb. Ground Pork
1/2 C. Panko Breadcrumbs
2 diced Green Onions
1 T Minced Garlic
2 T Oyster Sauce (or fish sauce)
1 T Soy Sauce
*sesame oil + brewed black tea (both are for cooking)

With a dough hook, or by hand, mix SIFTED flour and warm water. Add a tablespoon or two of water if dough is crumbly. Mix, or hand knead, for 5 min. Let the dough rest, covered, for 15 min.

While the dough is resting, mix all remaining ingredients (except for oil and tea) in a bowl. Set aside.

After dough has rested, knead for 5 more minutes, then allow it to rest for another 5. This will make it very pliable and easy to work with.

Pull off a piece of dough the size of a ping-pong ball. Sprinkle flour on the work surface and roll dough into roughly a 4-5" diameter disc. These tend to be pretty forgiving when it comes to thickness, but generally I shoot for a thickness a bit thinner than a tortilla (about 1mm). Place a heaping tablespoon of the pork mixture onto the dough and then fold it in half and pinch the seam closed. The dough should seal itself pretty easily.

Cooking:
Use a non-stick skillet! Heat over medium-high heat. Add 2 Tbs oil to the bottom of the pan and add the pot stickers. Make sure each pot sticker has the bottom oiled. Pour in the black tea (or regular water) until it comes half way up the pot stickers. Cover the pot, with the lid slightly askew, to allow the liquid to cook off. When the liquid has cooked off, add a little more oil and flip all of the dumplings to brown other side. Once browned, remove from heat.
