Appetizer sized Pot sticks

Anyone here ever watch House Hunterson HGTV?At the moment I am watching it with my family with the fire place on and its all cozy.Anyway so the people are  showing where they live and they are going out to dinner with there two boys.Somebody got pot sticks and they looked really good.So I looked on Allrecipes which is my second favorite website for food(mine is the first). I was going to put up another recipe anyway but I looked  under the New Years section and I came along this.My eyes must have gotten big because I was like OMG I can't that was weird and my family was like are you okay your eyes look like they are gonna pop.When I got on I accidentally pressed on the Appetizer part and these came  up so GO JAMIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To change the subject-have you ever opened a package and there is like a ton of stuff in there?Well thats like this.It has the wonton as the box and inside you have beef,soy sauce,ginger root,chestnuts,onion,cabbage,and more stuff to.All in one bite you get these amazing textures and flavors and HM I always eat pretty much all them before my guest even arrive a which can be quite annoying.Well I got to get back to watching with my family so bye and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!

In a large bowl, mix together the pork, cabbage, green onion, ginger, water chestnuts, salt, sugar and sesame oil. Chill in the refrigerator 6 to 8 hours(overnight works to) 
Place a tablespoon of the pork mixture into each of the wonton wrappers. Fold the wrappers, and seal the edges with a wet  fork. 
In a large, deep skillet, heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium high heat. Place the pot stickers into the oil seam sides up. Heat 30 seconds to a minute. Pour water into the skillet. Gently boil 7 to 8 minutes, until oil and water begins to sizzle, then add remaining oil. When the bottoms begin to brown, remove pot stickers from heat. 
In a small serving bowl, mix together the chili oil, soy sauce, and vinegar, and put in a small bowl on side of wontons so people can dip there pot sticks into it.Serve and enjoy!!!!!!
