Chocolate Gyoza Recipe
Gyouza is the Japanese transliteration of the original Chinese name, jiaozi. They usually consist of a ground meat/vegetable mix wrapped up in pasta-like dough.
…But why not make them with chocolate?
Ingredients
Chocolate
Almond powder
Gyouza skins (If you’re in Japan, you can find these in the meat section. Outside Japan, check your local specialty supermarket.)
Method
(1) Melt the chocolate by putting it in a small bowl and then putting that into a larger bowl of hot water. If you ever made cornflake cakes as a kid, you should know how to do this.
(2) Mix in almond powder to thicken it.
(3) Put the mixture into the skins and seal them using a very small amount of water.
(4) Fry them using a small amount of oil over a low heat.

Omigod. I HAVE TO MAKE THESE THIS WEEKEND.
Be sure to tell me how it goes!
(And don’t eat more than a few at a time. Seriously.)
Wow, this is certainly interesting. Will have to try it when the wife (who is Japanese) isn’t home though. I might get scolded at for this one.
How did it go by the way?
Excellent, but don’t eat too many at a time.
My Japanese teacher was surprised by the recipe as well. :)
Wow! That sounds incredible — I think we will definitely try this recipe out for the next Night Of Debauchery our friends hold!
A Night of Debauchery sounds much more fun. Dare I ask…?
*laugh* It involves much less actual debauching than one might think — but there is plenty of alcohol, hookahs, card games and video games. Also occasional drunken croquet and costumes for no reason which can be discerned. We’re a bunch of theater/video/comics/scifi/LARPing geeks, so that should give you a good notion of how things go.
Oh, so it’s like a D&D night with a better name. :P
