Pour in chicken stock and add curry blocks. Stir until the curry blocks have disintegrated and the is thick. Optionally blend for a smooth sauce.
Add Worcestershire sauce, honey, soy sauce, and salt to taste. Let simmer on low heat for 30 minutes.
Gyozas
Combine all ingredients in bowl. Mix in one direction until you see streaks of fat along the side of the bowl.
Place a tsp of filling in the center of the wrapper and wet the edges to seal the edges. Fold using your thumb and index finger to make pleats.
Cooking + Plating
Combine water, flour, cornstarch, and salt to make a dumpling skirt.
Add oil to a nonstick pan and arrange the dumplings around the pan.
Turn the heat to medium and once the bottoms of the dumpling are lightly browned. Add the cornstarch slurry.
Cover with a lid and steam for 5-7 minutes. Remove the lid and let the residual water evaporate so the bottom can crisp up.
Add the sauce to a plate along with the dumplings and garnish with green onion and Japanese pickles.
