Directions:
- In a bowl, combine ground pork, shrimp, rice wine, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, salt, pepper, garlic, and ginger. Mix well.
- Add cabbage, carrots, eggwhite, and cornstarch. Mix until well combined. Refrigerate for couple of hours or overnight.
- Place two teaspoon of filling in the center of your wonton wrapper.
- Brush edges of the wrapper with water. Fold it over to form a moon shape and press the edges together firmly to seal. Do this until you finished all the fillings.
- In a saute pan, heat a tablespoon of oil. Add 8 potstickers and cook for about 3 minutes on each side or until brown.

Note:
If you don’t have yuzu sauce, you can make your own dipping sauce by combining soy sauce, fried garlic, soy sauce, lemon juice and pepperflakes.
