Zoe is a girl who works at this Yum cha place in Taiwan. Her job is to make those yummy yummy dim sum. She happened to visit her cousin in NZ who happens to be a good friend of mine. So here is it! It is actually very very simple, and its nice.
What you need:
Thin Wonton wrapper
200 g Skinless prawn
150 g Pork mince
150 g Fatty pork mince
1 Tbs Sesame oil
1 Tbs fish sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp chicken stock
1/2 tsp pepper
What to do:
Roughly chop the prawn into chunks and combine all the ingredient above. You can also add some finely chopped chinese mushroom if you wish. I didn't put any this time because I was lazy.
Once they are mixed well, use a table spoon to measure a scoop of shumai mix and place them on a piece of wonton skin and wrap it into small shumai parcels.
While you were doing all the mixing and the wrapping, you can actually start preparing the steamer. What I mean by that is boiling the water. So when your shumai is ready, the steamer will be nice and hot! You can use this steamer or any other steamer you have at home. I was very happy with my $6 steamer I bought in this chinese shop on dominion Road.Arrange the shumai in the steamer like this
And steam for about 10 minutes. and TADAAAAAA.... enjoy them with chili and soy sauce
