If making ahead and freezing: place the baking sheet of gyoza in the freezer for 30 to 60 minutes until thoroughly frozen before placing them in a bag or freezer-safe container. These can be cooked straight from frozen.
To cook, drizzle a thin layer of oil in a pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the gyoza and for 1-2 minutes until the bottom side is and crisp. Pour in some water and cover the pan with a lid to and finish cooking them through.
- For fresh gyoza, steam for about 3 minutes; for frozen, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the lid and let them cook for 1 more minute.
