Ox Tail and Mushroom Gyoza with a Black Garlic Vinegar Dipping Sauce

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

This recipe is made with leftover pre cooked oxtail meat. This can be substituted for any precooked shredded beef, such as brisket, short rib, etc. You will want to have this available before proceeding.

Step 2

Finely dice ½ of a white onion and set aside.

Step 3

Mince 3 cloves of garlic and set aside.

Step 4

With a mortar and pestle, grind together ¼ teaspoon of fennel seed, 2 whole cloves, ¼ teaspoon of Szechuan peppercorn, ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon and 1 star anise pod. Set aside.

Step 5

Clean and chop 8 ounces of mushrooms. Set aside.

Step 6

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. When butter has melted, add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally until the water has evaporated.

Step 7

While the mushrooms cook, take 1 cup of precooked shredded beef and chop into half inch strands. Set aside

Step 8

When the mushrooms begin to get crispy, add the onion and cook until just softened.

Step 9

Add the chopped beef and stir to incorporate.

Step 10

Add 3 tablespoons of soy sauce and scrape up any fond from the bottom of the skillet.

Step 11

Add ½ cup of shredded carrots and the minced garlic. Continue to cook for an additional 30 seconds. Remove from heat.

Step 12

Add 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil, the previously grinded spices and ½ teaspoon of fresh grated ginger. Stir to incorporate.

Step 13

To make the sauce, blend together 4 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of toasted sesame oil and 3 cloves of black garlic. Set aside.

Step 14

Take 1 package of premade gyoza wrappers and place slightly less than a tablespoon of mixture in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the sides of the wrapper with water and fold in half, gently pressing sides together to seal. Continue filling and folding until the desired number of gyoza is made.

Step 15

To cook, heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add gyoza upright and side by side and reduce the heat to medium. Continue to cook until the bottoms turn golden brown.

Step 16

Pour ⅓ cup of water into the skillet and immediately cover the pan tightly. Cook until all the water has been absorbed. Serve while hot with the dipping sauce and chili oil on the side.
