    In bowl, stir together beef, peanuts, green onion, ginger, salt and 3 tbsp (45 mL) of the dipping sauce. Place 2 tsp (10 mL) of the filling in the centre of a wonton wrapper.

    In large nonstick frying pan, heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of oil over medium heat. Add half the dumplings, pinched side up. Add enough water so dumplings are three quarters covered, about 1 cup (250 mL). Cover pan and cook over high heat for 6 minutes or until water evaporates. Uncover and cook over medium heat for 3 minutes, or until bottoms are golden and crisp. Transfer potstickers to a serving dish. Repeat with remaining oil and potstickers. Serve warm with remaining dipping sauce.
