We got to visit a dim sum restaurant on a trip to NYC recently, and I fell in love with this stuff! It's basically a steamed dumpling with meat and veggies inside. This particular one is called Chicken Shu Mai. Pretty easy to make. If you don't have a steamer handy, you could also use egg roll wrappers and bake or fry these.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb ground chicken (or substitute meat of your choice)
1/2 c mushrooms, finely chopped
1/2 c green onions, finely chopped
1/2 c carrots, finely chopped
2 Tbsp soy sauce
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 tsp ground pepper
1 pkg wonton wrappers

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients in bowl.
  • 2. Place about 1 tablespoon of meat mixture on each wonton wrapper, and bring all corners together in center. See photo above. It's easier to fold these with clean, dry hands.
  • 3. Place dim sum in a bamboo steamer or whatever you have, making sure to space them a little bit apart or they will stick together.
  • 4. Steam for about 15 minutes or until meat is cooked through. Serve with extra soy sauce for dipping if you like.
