The Shrimp-Pork dumpling recipe was given to me by a good friend over 20 years ago. It's a tried and true. I've also shared a vegetable version from Alton Brown which is also very good.
I like to steam and serve them in these little 3-tier bamboo steamers, each person can have their own, or just arrange them on the table so each diner can help themselves.
Steaming is such a healthy and quick way to cook ~ I use several sizes in my kitchen for cooking Chicken, Fish, Vegetables, and Dim Sum. Plus the largers ones make perfect pie/ muffin/cupcake carriers and fruit baskets.... Love that they are multi-taskers. :)
Of course, if you prefer you can make your own dumpling dough, this is the shortcut method using store bought wonton wrappers. The dough will not be as tender as traditional dumpling dough; it's thinner and a little more chewy, but it is a good quick version.
This time I simply drizzled them with Sweet Chilli Sauce from the bottle, but I also have listed two other favorite dipping sauces along with the printable recipes on

Hi Mari,
ReplyDeleteI've never used a steaming basket, but I want to now! And I've never seen such cute hand painted cookies as the ones you have below.
Heading there.

Steamed dumplings are one of our favorite foods. My five year old can eat a whole order by herself. I can't wait to check out your recipe. Now I'm wishing that I had a 3-tiered steamer. : ) I usually just steam them in the pan.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to serve these!
ReplyDeleteYummy - I love steamed dumplings. Thanks!
