These mini shumai are packed with spring onions, which are in season right now, offering a sweet and crispy texture. By reducing the amount of meat, the natural umami of the onions shines through, making them light and easy to eat in large quantities. They're also perfect for bento boxes.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (20 pieces)

  • Spring Onions 150-160g
  • Ground Pork 50-70g
  • Ginger (grated) Slightly less than 1 tsp
  • Beaten Egg 1 tbsp
  • Shumai Wrappers 20 pieces

Seasonings

  • [A] Oyster Sauce 1 tsp
  • [A] Salt A pinch
  • [A] Sugar A pinch
  • [A] Soy Sauce A pinch
  • [A] Pepper A pinch
  • Potato Starch 3 tbsp

Steps

  1. In a large bowl, add ground pork 50-70g, grated ginger slightly less than 1 tsp, and the [A] seasonings (oyster sauce 1 tsp, salt a pinch, sugar a pinch, soy sauce a pinch, pepper a pinch). Mix well until sticky.
  2. Add beaten egg 1 tbsp to the sticky ground pork and mix thoroughly.
  3. In a separate bowl, gradually add potato starch 3 tbsp to spring onions 150-160g, tossing until the onion pieces are separated and evenly coated.
  4. Add the spring onions coated with potato starch to the bowl with the mixed ground pork.
  5. Gently mix without applying too much pressure, just enough to combine. This is the key! To preserve the texture and sweetness of the spring onions, mix gently without overmixing.
  6. Spread the mixed filling onto a tray and chill in the refrigerator to firm up.
  7. Take about 10-15g of the filling per piece and wrap with shumai wrappers 20 pieces. Place the filling on a wrapper, gather towards the center, form into a 'teru teru bozu' (weather doll) shape, and gently press the bottom onto a surface to shape.
  8. Line a steamer with parchment paper and arrange the shumai.
  9. Steam in a well-steamed steamer for 6-7 minutes until cooked through. Enjoy!
