Siopow-Steamed Dumplings

Ingredients

1 wrapper recipe
240 ml water
16 ml oil
4 gr salt
130 gr shrimp
34 gr pork
240 ml water chestnuts
1/4 scallions
24 gr onions
1 egg
3 gr pepper

Instructions

Boil wrapper. Remove from heat and pour in 1.5 cup flour and beat until it forms a ball. Divide into 3 cm balls and roll each until paper thin. Spoon 1 tbls. mixture into each wrapper, fold and seal. Arrange in steamer and steam 30 minutes. Again some expanation... these can be made with much thicker wrappers (the ones the street vendors sell are more like half to 3 cm thick) and the filling can be just about anything. I have done these with leftover meat and a few vegetables ... such as mushrooms, celery etc. Courtesy of Ted Taylor. Reposted by Fred Peters.
