For the crispiest gyoza. Ensure your skillet is well-heated. Before adding the dumplings. After frying the bottoms to a golden brown. Add a splash of water to the skillet. And cover it with a lid. This steams the gyoza. Ensuring the filling is cooked through. While keeping the bottoms crispy. Remove the lid once the water has evaporated. To let the gyoza crisp up again.
