Slice scallions and grate ginger.

Add 1 tablespoon of grated ginger and sliced scallions to a mixing bowl with fatty ground pork.

Mix the filling ingredients together thoroughly.

Take a wonton wrapper and paint the top with water.

Scoop a small amount of filling into the center of the wrapper.

Fold the wrapper over the filling and seal it, ensuring no meat is poking out.

Dampen fingers with water and pleat the edges of the wonton.

Add a few tablespoons of water to a pan and place the potstickers inside.
