Just don't be surprised if antibiotics don't work on you anymore
These farmed selfish are the most toxic food out there, grown by uneducated farmers with no knowledge of chemistry,
just adding Benzo this, fluro thatGood luck with the cancer treatment
That's not how antibiotic resistance works.
Google Asian farmed prawns or even wild caught in their rivers, then see if you still want to argue the point
'Good luck with the cancer treatment'
It helps your argument if you don't come across as being completely arrogant and treating anyone who disagrees with contempt.
yeah, the Made in Thailand should raise some alarm bells for the prawn content but preferred over the Made in China options.
True….Thai rivers are fairly "meh" but I'll take Thai prawns over Vietnamese or Chinese, for now.
why people quote online price which is normally 10% more than in-store and on the picture it says half price was $16 now $8?
Never had these, do you fry them?
First need a frypan with a matching lid.
You fry them until they have good colour; you can just do the base or do all three sides, its up to personal preference, then once you have them fried as you like, you add in a little bit of water to the frypan and put the lid on to steam/fry them again. You have to watch the pan and get them just a little after the water evaporates, when they are dry but not burnt.
It's easy once you see somebody do it once. I kind of had no idea until I was dating a Korean girl who showed me.
Delicious! (the Gyoza weren't bad either)I kind of had no idea until I was dating a Korean girl who showed me.
May I have her phone number so she can teach me?

Next in line plz
Tell this to your Mrs… She will hate them even more ;)
Nice. I love these. The Mrs hates them due to suspicions about the origins of the prawns.
Haha yeah, might pass on that, better to keep the house nice and frost-free
I steam mine ;-)
Logged in just to upvote this
Same!
I have tried both steam and oven-bake. Taste nice using both methods. Oven-bake produces crispy (a bit on the hard side) pastry.
They are already cooked. So I just simply place them in a microwave safe pot, pour water and then 3-4 minutes in microwave high strength. Now drain the water. Done. Dip in mayonnaise or chilli sauce. Yummm
We steam ours using a basket over a saucepan on the stove top.
Wow, Coles are really into their down downs, the size has also gone down down from 1Kg to 750g ($10 vs $8).
Their BBQ chooks are the worst.
Price is down to $8, but I've seen bigger sparrows in my yard.
Are you serious? They vary in size sure but they are actually pretty big and feed my family pretty easily (with leftovers).
They were pretty big, they aren't anymore.
You actually think they can knock off $3 from the price and remain the same size?
And you must have a small family if you can feed them on a chook and have leftovers.
This was 2 weeks ago.
Depends what else you feed your family with the chicken.
But if I am a early 20s guy that lifts a lot of weights, yeah I could eat nearly a whole chicken. Not good for you though given the sodium content of those suckers.
Yep, costco chicken ftw
Seriously, do yourself a favour and buy gyoza or dumplings from your local Asian grocery stores, they taste million miles better than this and prices probably work out the same. I tried this brand once when it was on sale, they tasted horrible and the prawn pieces are small and mushy so for me, never buy these again.
Would appreciate if anyone can suggest common brand(s) which can be bought from Asian groceries. I felt a bit overwhelmed when looking at the fridge/freezer in the Asian groceries, because there are so much stuff … Thanks in advance.
I usually get them from Korean grocery stores (though not a Korean myself). They have plenty of options and my favourites are kimchi dumplings.
In terms of Chinese dumplings, I'd prefer Hakka. The wrapping is not as thick and floury as some other brands. They are perfect for pan-fry and steaming but please don't boil them. They fall apart pretty much as soon as they touch the boiling water :(
I am familiar with the Hakka brand for the fish paste. So they have dumplings too. Thanks very much, will lookout for them. Gotta go to a Korean grocery too … to try something new.
Are the packages in English? I love kimchi dumplings, but have never seen them frozen. My asian grocer is massive and sells a fair amount of korean stuff like fresh kimchi and gochujuang.
As far as I remember the packages are mostly in Korean. Sometimes they would say "Kimchi dumplings" at the front, but you can always check the tiny labels at the back (in English) which always tell you what kind of dumplings they are, the ingredients etc.
Plus you can sort of guess the type dumplings from the pictures at the front. The Kimchi ones usually have red packaging (like this one - which is very delicious : https://redmart.com/product/wang-kimchi-dumpling-27130)
Mind you if you dislike/ are allergic to MSG you need to choose very carefully. From what I see most Korean dumplings have MSG.
Hope this helps :)
@fortunecookies: Thanks, having the image is helpful, gives an idea what to look for. Looks like it needs frying. Can I get away with oven-bake, do you think?
MSG- glutamic acid bound by a sodium ion
Glutamic acid: The most abundant amino acid by weight,
Amino Acid: What makes up proteins. Which make up tissues, regulates body functions and thousands of other things necessary for human life.
Upon ingesting MSG, it breaks down into sodium and glutamic acid. If you were allergic to either sodium or gluatmic acid you would be dead.
I have never tried over-baked dumplings before. Sounds interesting and I'd love to try it.
Seeing you've done that before, do you have any tips? Do you need to spray the dumplings with a bit of oil beforehand to prevent burning?
@fortunecookies: No need to spray with oil. I just take it out from frozen state to lined tray, then bake for 15-20 mins or so at 180C until cooked. I must admit, sometimes the pastry edges do come out a tiny bit on the hard side, instead of the lovely soft crisp you get from frying. But for me, it is compensated - with no frying needed, and no oil use.
Hope you like the results ! :-)
Not sure where you are but I'm from Brisbane, the brands called "True Taste" and "Gordon" are of very good quality, they are available in most of the Asian grocery stores.
Thanks a lot, I'm in Melb, I will be sure to lookout for them next time at the Asian grocery.
I have the prawn one from Costco. It's actually ok taste, for best result making dumpling, steam them first, then pan fry them a bit more to get that golden crunch side.
That's the same as the Coles one i.e. KB
Thanks for clarifying their similarity :)
Those KB dumplings are quite nice. I'll make sure I get some on 5th April.
bought so much last time, think still got some in the fridge, seriously kinda sick of the taste now…>.<
These are great for a quick meal if you are feeling lazy, I bulk buy and put them in the freezer.
I enjoy them with soy sauce. :D
add a dash of vinegar in with the soy. even up to 50% vinegar subject to taste.
Any feedback on the veggie ones?
I like them, not as much as the prawn but they're very tasty in my opinion.
my kids prefer the vege option
Friends, I wholeheartedly do not recommend these. Sure packaged gyoza will always be worse than homemade but these are another level of low. On top of that the package usually has too much ice/ moisture in it so they wont fry properly. Steamed they're better but still taste weak.
Why are the same things always on special ? Is it because they're massively overpriced just so they can constantly put them on special?
KB use to have, and may still, these great frozen packs of tempura veggies. They were single packs of each, which was a shame, b/c so may large bags were needed to get a good mix. The tempura onions were amazing. They were hard to find then and now I cant find them anywhere. Probably discontinued.
Toss them in the steamer, 10 mins. then place on a rack in an airfryer sprayed with coconut oil, 10-15 mins (do not flip). output is soft/ crispy aromatic heavenly delights.
Goes well with a concoction of asian sauces + chilli and Singha
Perfect for that quick asian fix.Do I spray the airfryer itself, or just spray it onto the Gyozas? Will try this later!
Just tried this recipe, it is seriously good.
Too late :( My store already got Broden-ed, out of stock!!
Get a raincheck!
They are on sale that often it makes me wonder if they're really worth the RRP.
Who cares really though, they're delicious. I know of hotels that use the same brand.I'm not sure they're worth the RRP given what gyoza sells for in Thailand - profit margin must be enormous, even once landed in Oz.
Love these dumplings. I'm too lazy to perform the math on bulk buying & storing in a chest freezer (running cost/opportunity cost) but it's a tempting thought :)
Bought two (one veg and one Prawn). There is not much prawn inside. Not very tasty, not recommended especially for the full price. You'd better check out the Asian stores (Chinese or Korean), they sell real ones.
Nice. I love these. The Mrs hates them due to suspicions about the origins of the prawns.
Me, I go with "tastes good but"
