Best Bergy Dim Sum 5 Steamed Shrimp Dumplings Recipes
EASY STEAMED SHRIMP DUMPLINGS
This is an easier albeit much less sophisticated adaptation of Hey Jude's Har Gow recipe (#109191). I wanted something I could make up in the kitchen in our apartment in town, which is tiny and not well equipped. For steaming, I used a rice cooker with a steamer basket.

SIU MAI OR SIOMAI (DIM SUM DUMPLINGS)
Siu mai or Siomai are steamed dumplings but with an open top. They're just so delicious that every time I go to Chinese restaurants or take out, expect me to order this as an appetizer. My Mom/sis used to prepare this as well and is good served with a dip of soy sauce mixed with any of these: calamansi/lemon/lime/kumquat. Now that I have to make it, there are times I opt out on the water chestnuts since I don't have them but it hardly changes a thing. :D Serving size really depends. Sauce recipe: 1/4 cup soy sauce and 1 tsp lemon or lime or calamansi or kumquat.

STEAMED SHRIMP AND VEGETABLE DUMPLINGS
this was me trying to deconstruct the steamed dumplings I get at chinese restaurants, plus adding shrimp. I think it turned out pretty well.

Steps:
- In a large bowl mix together all the minced vegetables. It is important that the vegetables are a very small dice because they are filling the small wontons.
- In a skillet, saute the shrimp in the oil until just about pink. I did not fully cook the shrimp because I feel that the steamer does the rest for me. But if you feel differently, by all means go ahead and cook the shrimp fully. The shrimp should also be chopped small, I like chopping them after they cook, it seems easier.
- Once the shrimp has cooled, add it to the minced vegetables and add the salt to season.
- Take each wonton square and add a small amount of filling to the center. take your index finger, wet it and trace it around the edge of each wonton (to create a seal for the wontons once they are pressed together.).
- Pinch each edge of the wontons so to make a triangle, then bring each of the three tips up together to create a bundle.
- Repeat steps four and five until you use up all the filling.
- Prepare your steamer with the water, heat it for a minute or so, and then lay the lettuce leaves on the bottom to prevent the dumplings from sticking.
- Steam the dumplings in batches for about 2-3 minutes, or until the wontons become translucent.
- Enjoy! They go well with soy sauce, however, I prefer the sweeter type sauce I get with the chinese take-out, so if you can find something like that to serve the dumplings with, I would suggest it.
