Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 pound raw shrimp (peeled, de-veined, and patted dry)
1 teaspoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 cup bamboo shoots
1 cup wheat starch
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 1/4 cups boiling water ((add an additional 1 to 2 teaspoons in dryer climates))
3 teaspoons lard ((or oil))

Steps:

  • Mix everything (except the bamboo) together; whip in one direction for a few minutes until the mixture starts to look sticky. Now add the chopped bamboo shoots, and mix everything together. Cover and refrigerate while preparing the dough.
  • Mix the wheat starch and cornstarch in a mixing bowl. Slowly add in the boiling water, while stirring rapidly. Now add in the lard (or oil) and continue to stir. Knead the dough for a couple of minutes, until it turns into a smooth dough ball. Roll the dough into a long cylinder, and divide it into 18 equal pieces. Cover the dough pieces with a damp paper towel.
  • Turn on the stove to pre-boil the water in the steamer. Take one piece of dough and roll it into a 3" diameter circle. Add a spoonful of filling and fold the dumpling as shown in our video. Continue assembling until all the dumplings are made.
  • Once the water in the steamer is boiled, steam the shrimp dumplings for 6 minutes using high heat and serve hot. Make sure that they each have an inch and a half to expand during the cooking process.

There might be some meat mixture left, I always make some without wrappers. Shape meat into meatballs and just steam as you steam the wrapped ones but maybe for shorter time. Serve with steamed tatsoi and some soy sauce and red chillies . Superb! Enjoy!
