Snowflake Shaped Potstickers with Pork and Shrimp Filling

**Make the Dough:** In a large bowl, combine flour and hot water. Stir until a shaggy dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 30 minutes.

**Prepare the Filling:** In a separate bowl, combine ground pork, chopped shrimp, napa cabbage, green onions, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.

**Shape the Potstickers:** Divide the dough into small portions (about 1 inch in diameter). Roll each portion into a thin circle (about 3 inches in diameter). Use a snowflake-shaped cookie cutter to create a snowflake shape.

**Fill and Seal:** Place a small spoonful of the pork and shrimp filling in the center of each snowflake. Gently fold the dough over the filling to create a semi-circle. Pinch the edges together to seal, creating pleats along the curved edge for a decorative effect.

**Prepare for Cooking:** Lightly dust the potstickers with cornstarch to prevent sticking.

**Pan-Fry:** Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the potstickers in the skillet, flat side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottoms are golden brown.

**Steam:** Pour 1/2 cup of water into the skillet. Cover immediately with a lid. Reduce heat to low and steam for 5-7 minutes, or until the water has evaporated and the potstickers are cooked through. Be careful when removing the lid, as steam will escape.

**Serve:** Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce (soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil).
