Chop the Cabbage – Start with Napa or green cabbage. Slice it in half, remove the core, and finely chop the leaves into small pieces. The finer the chop, the better it blends into the filling
Squeeze Out Excess Water – After resting, use a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth to wring out the cabbage . Gather it into a bundle and squeeze firmly to remove as much liquid as possible. If using your hands, press it against a fine-mesh sieve
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium heat . Add ½ small onion (finely chopped) , 2–3 cloves of garlic (minced) , and 1-inch ginger (grated or minced) , cooking for 2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in 1 cup minced mushrooms and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened. Add ½ block firm tofu (pressed and crumbled) and sauté for 2 minutes until lightly golden. Mix in 2 cups finely chopped cabbage (pre-salted and squeezed dry) and cook for another 2 minutes . Season with 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari) and optionally ½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil , stirring for 1 more minute to meld the flavors. Finally, add ¼ cup finely chopped green onion , stir briefly, then remove from heat. Let cool before using as dumpling filling.
