Hey everyone! I'm excited to share one of my all-time favorite dinner recipes: Homemade Siomai! It's a classic dish that never fails to impress, and it's surprisingly easy to make at home. Here's what you'll need:
Ingredients:
I usually start by mixing together the ground pork, chopped shrimp, water chestnuts, green onions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Once everything is well combined, it's time to assemble the siomai!
I spoon a small amount of the filling onto a wonton wrapper, then gather the edges and pleat them to create that classic siomai shape. It might take a bit of practice, but trust me, it's worth it for that authentic look!
After all the siomai are assembled, I steam them for about 10-12 minutes until cooked through. You can serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauce—I personally love a mix of chili sauce and soy sauce for that extra kick!
I hope you give this homemade siomai recipe a try for your next dinner—it's sure to be a hit with family and friends! Let me know if you have any questions or if you've tried any variations that you love. Happy cooking!
