Here's an example:
Gyoza

INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 cups chopped cabbage
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/4 cup chopped carrot
1/2 pound ground pork
1 egg
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (10 ounce) package wonton wrappers
1/4 cup water

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar

DIRECTIONS:
Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Mix in cabbage, onion, garlic and carrot. Cook and stir until cabbage is limp. Mix in ground pork and egg. Cook until pork is evenly brown and egg is no longer runny.

Preheat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.

Place approximately 1 tablespoon of the cabbage and pork mixture in the center of each wrapper. Fold wrappers in half over filling, and seal edges with moistened fingers.

In the preheated vegetable oil, cook gyoza approximately 1 minute per side, until lightly browned. Place water into skillet and reduce heat. Cover and allow gyoza to steam until the water is gone.

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce and rice vinegar. Use the mixture as a dipping sauce for the finished wrappers.

Answer 2

Most Japanese restaurants probably buy their gyoza frozen. Preparing and folding the gyoza no kawa (pasta wrapping) so it looks right is as skilled as the japanese art of paper folding (origami) and not something you can pick up just like that. Check out any Japanese store and you will find it in the frozen food section. Likewise teriyaki sauce is available in most supermarkets (buy kikoman). Miso soup is quite easy to make as long as you get the correct amount of miso paste to water ratio. Tonkatsu is just like any other meat cooked in breadcrumbs, but use Japanese Panko and buy some bulldog sauce for an authetic taste.

Grilled Tuna Salad with Wasabi Dressing:

This spicy Japanese-style salad gets its kick from wasabi. In place of the pungent wasabi, you could use an equal amount of powdered dry mustard.

1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons olive oil
1 1/4 pounds fresh tuna steak
4 teaspoons wasabi powder*
2 tablespoons tahini* (sesame paste)
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon sugar
2 small garlic cloves, minced
Salt and freshly ground pepper
7 ounces alfalfa sprouts (4 cups)
7 ounces trimmed enoki mushrooms* (2 cups)
1/2 pound young spinach, stemmed
2 tablespoons slivered Japanese pickled ginger*
*Available at Asian markets and health food shops

1. In a shallow glass dish, combine 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of the oil. Add the tuna and coat well. Refrigerate for about 15 minutes, turning the fish twice.

2. Light a grill or preheat the broiler. In a small bowl, mix the wasabi powder with 4 teaspoons of hot water. Cover and set aside for 5 minutes.

3. In another bowl, stir 2 tablespoons of warm water into the tahini. Stir in the wasabi paste, vinegar, mustard, sugar, garlic and the remaining 2 teaspoons soy sauce and 4 teaspoons oil. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Season the tuna with salt and pepper; grill or broil until crusty on the outside and rare within, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a plate to rest for a few minutes, then slice it against the grain 1/3 inch thick.

5. In a large bowl, toss the alfalfa sprouts with the enoki mushrooms and all but 2 tablespoons of the dressing; loosen the sprouts to evenly distribute the dressing. Scatter the spinach leaves on 4 large plates and arrange the tuna on top. Drizzle on the remaining 2 tablespoons dressing. Mound the sprout salad on the tuna, scatter the pickled ginger on top and serve.
