Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Ground pork
- 150 grams Shrimp (peeled, deveined, and chopped)
- 30 pieces Wonton wrappers (round or square)
- 50 grams Water chestnuts (finely chopped)
- 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground white pepper
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1 piece Egg (lightly beaten)
- 30 grams Carrot (grated, for garnish)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped shrimp, water chestnuts, green onions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, white pepper, cornstarch, and beaten egg. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Place one wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Add about 1 tablespoon of the filling to the center. Gently pleat the edges of the wrapper upwards around the filling, leaving the top exposed. Press lightly to seal and shape into a small cup.
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Prepare a steamer by lining it with parchment paper or cabbage leaves to prevent sticking. Arrange the dumplings upright in the steamer, leaving some space between each dumpling.
Top each dumpling with a small pinch of grated carrot for garnish.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and place the steamer over it. Cover the steamer and steam the dumplings for 12-15 minutes or until the filling is fully cooked.
Remove the dumplings from the steamer and serve hot with soy sauce, chili oil, or your favorite dipping sauce.
