VEGETARIAN DIM SUM RECIPES STEAMED RECIPES

Steps:

• Lay the wonton wrappers side by side to thaw. Drain the bamboo shoots well in a sieve. Peel and finely chop the ginger root. Mix the bamboo shoots and ginger with the mince, rice wine and soy sauce and season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar. Trim the spring onions and pull off 12 individual leaves. Blanch the spring onion leaves in boiling water for 1-2 minutes. Finely chop 1/3-1/2 of the rest of the spring onions and add to the mince mixture. Put a little of the mince filling on each of the wonton wrappers, gather each wrapper up to make a little bag and tie with a spring onion leaf. Place the dim sum side by side in a bamboo steamer and steam for about 12 minutes.
• Remove the spring onion ties before serving if you wish.

Steps:

• With the wheat starch and water (while kneading add in tiny amounts) produce a supple, smooth dough. Roll out thinly, cut out about 8-10 cm (approximately 3-4 inches) circles. Combine shrimp, ginger, sesame oil, pepper, onion (or leek) and salt and mix well.
• Place the filling into the center of each circle. Then fold to the center and thereby put the seam side alternately into each other forming into wrinkles. The goal is it should look something like a zig-zag stitching. Then in a bamboo basket steam for 10 minutes. For the sauce, mix all ingredients and serve with the dim sum.
