Cooking Steps
Roughly cut gyoza into thirds.
Massage rice in package to break up grains. Partially open package to vent. Microwave for 45 seconds. TIP: Rice will finish cooking in next step. Microwave times may vary. Be careful when handling and opening the pouch.
Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add gyoza and rice. Cook, stirring occassionally, until gyoza is warmed through and rice is crispy, 5-7 minutes.
Stir in gyoza sauce, soy sauce, and cabbage and carrot mix. Cook, stirring constantly, until everything is coated in sauce and cabbage is slightly tender, 1-2 minutes.
Taste and season with pepper if desired.
Divide fried rice between shallow bowls and top with as much Sriracha as you like. Serve.

Reviews from our home cooks
The Sesame Ginger Chicken Gyoza Fried Rice was delicious! It had an easy meal prep and was fast to make. It had a little too much heat for my daughter, so we'll put in less spice next time, but even she liked the flavor.
Finally, a meal that actually nearly meets the prep/cook time estimates! Skip step 1, just heat oil and put rice directly in pan and cook for a few minutes while chopping gyoza. Add more oil and gyoza, cook for a few minutes more before proceeding with final step. Needs an onion element; chop a few scallions after adding gyoza and add at end in final minute of cooking.
One of the best we've ever had from Hello Fresh! 3 yo approved and the adults went back for seconds. Added a scrambled egg to the fried rice and served with soy sauce. The provided siracha was also great on top. Only thing that would have been better would be a chili ponzu sauce to serve on top, like a gyoza dipping sauce you get at a Japanese restaurant.
Fast easy and tasty. Next time I would hold back adding the Gyoza until the rice was almost done toasting because by the time the rice was done getting toasty the Gyoza was burning.
Tasty, easy to prepare. Liked that it was fried rice but not traditional by doing gyoza and purple cabbage instead of normal proteins and veggies. Would definitely order again.
It needed an onion, so I added one I had. I also fried my pot stickers before cutting up and added them at the last second cause I was was pretty sure the filling would just come out as I stirred if I did it before. But the recipe was excellent! I had never though to put them as the protein on top of the fried rice!
This was a great way to use the gyoza you guys always have (other version would would be great as well). The only thing that NEEDS to be added is green onion. Where are the green onions? This needed to be topped with a big pile of huge, diagonally cut green onions. Still, really good.
Recommend using sesame oil and butter or canola/vegetable oil to fry everything in for an authentic takeout flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
I am in love with this. Easy and delicious. Only recommendation is for a little more rice.
I quite enjoyed this, and I definitely enjoyed how quick and easy it was to make! I did add a little extra gyoza dipping sauce into the pan that I had on-hand at home as the one it came with was a little odd and reminded me more of salad dressing. I also added some sesame seeds for a little more texture. Next time I think I'd make the gyoza separately from the rice and cabbage combo too, just to better suit picky eaters in my family.
