Our 15 Favorite Potsticker, Gyoza, and Dumpling Recipes
From pork-filled Chinese dumplings to reader-favorite shrimp potstickers, these recipes are restaurant-worthy—but easy enough to make in the comfort of your own home.
Dumplings are a broad category of food, encompassing virtually dish that features a filling wrapped in dough. Cultures all over the world have their own version of dumplings, but growing up in my family’s Thai restaurant, my favorites were always the delicate umami-rich kind, that feature some kind of protein and vegetable filling bundled up in a delicate wrapper before being steamed or pan-fried to perfection.
As such, we’ve curated some of our favorite dumpling and potsticker recipes that include easy-yet-delicious Pork Dumplings to Japanese-style Gyoza and even a recipe for the perfect wonton wrappers so you can customize the filling yourself. These dumplings are not only delicious as a main course, accompanied by a steaming bowl of rice, but also make an impressive appetizer for any party; keep scrolling to find your new favorite dumpling recipe.
Chinese Pork Dumplings
"Wow, these are better than takeout! I loved the dipping sauce! I did use low-sodium soy sauce, I will definitely be making these again. They freeze well too!" — Ms. Chef Esh
Pork Dumplings
"These are out of this world! I followed the recipe exactly as written. Note that they are time consuming but well worth the effort. You will have a ton of dumplings!" — RocksGirl
Taiwanese Dumplings
"These are so good! I steamed the first ones I made. They were great, but pan fried the 2nd 1/2 and I have to admit that the pan fried were the favorites. These are time consuming to make correctly but so worth it! Thanks for the recipe!" — TraciAnn and BB
Khanom Jeeb (Pork and Shrimp Dumplings)
"This is the type of dish that you cannot stop eating. I just wanted more with each bite. I love the texture with the steamed version, but I have a feeling pan fried would also be amazing if that’s more your cup of tea. And I never would have considered topping them with garlic oil. Such a game changer!" — Danielle K
Homemade Potsticker Sauce with Garlic and Ginger
"Yummy! The right ingredients and proportions. So happy I found this recipe!" — Allrecipes Member
Gyoza (Japanese Potstickers)
"I loved this recipe and already want to make it again! The sauce is the bomb too! The only one thing I will change next time is that I will brown them on each side prior to adding the water. Just a matter of personal preference when it comes down to it. I will be going to the market again soon to get more wrappers just so I can have these in my freezer at all times. Thanks for sharing!" — Soup Loving Nicole
Whole Shrimp Potstickers
"Wow these were great! I did use store bought skins and black rice vinegar. Next time I would try white rice vinegar. AND there will be a next time!" — Tina Elwood
Potstickers (Chinese Dumplings)
"I have made these many times. My whole family loves them, especially my kids. It does make a TON of filling, so I usually half the recipe. They freeze marvelously, and go straight from freezer to skillet. Two meals in one!" — Carol Ailshie Dormady
Chinese Dandelion Dumplings
"Bravo! I love dandelion greens but never thought to us them in gyoza. I was taught by my many Japanese "mothers" but have tweaked it over the years." — Ifortuna
Beefy Chinese Dumplings
"These were very good and hubby and friends loved them. This does make a lot so I froze the ones that we didn't eat and then when we were ready to make them, I just took them out frozen and deep fried them in the fryer until they were deep golden brown. They were still very good. Recipes like this are my favorite because it's so easy to change them up. Thanks for the post." — Cooking 101
Wonton Wrappers
"Perfect recipe for homemade wonton wrappers! I prefer to make everything myself when possible, used fresh eggs from my chickens. I used the wrappers for a pork dumpling recipe found here, and they worked perfectly. I plan to keep the same recipe for larger wrappers, making egg rolls." — Robyn's Nest
Pork Gyoza
"My husband and I love this recipe. And if you are not a fan of pork, ground beef also works amazingly well!" — Nyx Corvus
Gyoza Sauce
"Absolutely delicious and better than the bottled sauces! I assembled it in a jar and just shook it vigorously to mix and serve." — Allrecipes Member
Dim Sum Dumplings
"Great recipe! My family loved these new flavors. Just spicy enough." — Brett N Jennifer Humphrey
Beef and Mushroom Dumplings in Broth
"Excellent recipe, the whole family enjoyed these. The broth really pulls everything together and keeps the dumplings juicy and flavorful. We will be making this one again soon." — Spenser
