STEAMED CHORIZO DIM SIMS
Idea I had when I fancied a few home made dim sims but didn't want to defrost a large amount of mince / ground meat. I thought they came out really well and the chorizo gives an interesting but not overpowering taste.

Steps:
- Dice the chorizo with a knife or process briefly in a food processor. It doesn't have to be especially finely diced so a sharp knife will save some cleanup.
- Mix chorizo, garlic, ginger, onion and soy sauce well in a small bowl.
- Put around a teaspoon of mixture into the middle of each wonton. Exact amount of mixture will depend a bit on the size of the wrappers.
- Brush around the edge of each wonton wrapper as making with a little water and wrap into packages. There is probably a proper way to do this but I find the easiest is to fold left and right inwards, top and bottom inwards so it ends up square and then gently squeeze in the palm of my hand to form a rounder shape.
- They stick very easily so place baking paper into a steamer and prepare the steamer as per usual until steaming well.
- Steam for approximately 10 minutes. Because of the chorizo you really only need to warm through and not cook as long as you would with raw meat.
- Serve with sweet & sour sauce, sweet chilli, soy sauce or whatever else takes your fancy for dipping.

Steps:

- Make filling;.
- Mix meat, and seasonings by hand or pulse in a food processor. Do not over process.
- Add vegetables and mix by hand.
- Roll pastry until thin & cut into rounds; I use an egg-ring.
- Brush edge of rounds with eggwhite.
- Place 1-2 tablespoons of filling on each round & shape around filling, moulding into an attractive ball-shape; a little filling should be exposed on the top.
- Steam for 15 minutes OR Deep fry 180 c for 5-10 minutes.
Tips:
- To make the perfect steamed chorizo dim sim dough, ensure the water is warm to the touch but not scalding, around 110-115°F (45-46°C). This activates the yeast, allowing it to rise properly.
- Knead the dough well until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes. This will give the dim sims a light and fluffy texture.
- When shaping the dim sims, make sure to seal the edges tightly to prevent the filling from leaking out during steaming.
- Steam the dim sims over medium heat for 10-12 minutes or until they are cooked through. Overcrowding the steamer can prevent even cooking, so steam them in batches if necessary.
- Serve the steamed chorizo dim sims hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as soy sauce, chili oil, or vinegar.
