I love the little Chinese Gyoza dumplings. Both sweet and savoury versions are a regular feature in my kitchen. You can make them yourself, but I buy packets of them in Chinatown and keep in the freezer for a quick supper.
Inspired by my homemade tortilla chips I gave the gyoza wrappers the same treatment. Snappy, crunchy and spicy. Perfect as they are, or for dipping, they barely need a recipe.
My latest obsession is chocolate tea make from cocoa bean shavings from Hotel Chocolat, paired with cheese or spices it also makes an excellent gyoza topping. I am loking forward to further experiments with the shavings.
Spicy Chocolate Gyoza Crisps
Ingredients
- 1 package Gyoza wraps
- seasonings of choice
Instructions
- Place a piece of baking parchment on a tray and lay your gyoza skins out. Brush with a little olive oil and then sprinkle with your choice of cocoa bean flakes, spices, salt or finely grated Parmesan.
- Lightly run your rolling pin over them so the spices stick.
- Bake as GM5/ 190C for 5 to 6 minutes until bubbly and crispy.

Great idea! These look really tasty. I’m glad I’m not the only one trying out a cheese and chocolate combination!

Not a copt out at all – A great idea and “fuss free”!. Where do you get cocoa bean flakes from?

I’m an idiot – I’ve just seen that they were from Hotel Chocolat. Duh! I love their raw cacao beans. I simmer them in milk to make cacao tea. It’s really good.

These are flakes that just dissolve in boiling water. Delicious!

Agree with Gill, these are not a cop out, they are a brilliant idea. Love all this talk of cheese and chocolate – it works in cheesecake so why not in something savoury. Don’t know these wrappers – what are they made of – rice? Thanks for participating – really looking forward to doing this round-up.

These really look scrumptious, we have a new Chinese supermarket in Kingston and a hotel Chocolate, si I can see what I’ll be attempting next week. Thanks for such a great recipe .

A lovely idea, I love Gyoza so the idea of Gyoza crisps sounds delicious especially with the seasonings. A great entry.

These look incredible – I adore gyoza anyway and this adds a whole new twist

Great idea – especially as I have sometimes had leftover gyoza wrappers hanging around in the fridge and not had time to make little dumplings with them – next time they will become crisps!
