How to Prepare Fried or Steamed Veggie Dumplings [Vegan]

For the filling, quickly sauté the mushrooms and garlic over medium heat until soft. Transfer to a large bowl.
To the bowl, add the remaining filling ingredients and set aside to cool.
Once cool, spoon half a teaspoon of the mixture into the center of each wrapper. For the fried dumplings (or pot stickers), seal in a half moon formation. The steamed ones can be twisted into adorable little pouches.
Steam the half moons for about 45 seconds, while heating some of the vegetable oil in a large skillet, about one tablespoon per batch. Once slightly softened, fry the pot stickers on medium-high heat until golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side.
For the purses, simply steam them for 3-4 minutes each until soft to the touch and glossy on the outside.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, chili vinegar, sesame oil and green onion to create the delicious dipping sauce.
Serve with chopsticks and the spicy soy dipping sauce and enjoy!
