Steps
- Rinse 1 bag (200g) of bean sprouts under water and drain well in a colander.
- Pinch the bean sprouts with your hands and break them into small pieces, about 5mm to 1cm wide. Then, firmly squeeze out any excess water. [This is the key!] By finely breaking and squeezing out water from the bean sprouts, they will bind better with the meat mixture and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Finely shred 18 gyoza wrappers.
- Spread the shredded gyoza wrappers on a tray or flat plate.
- In a bowl, combine 150g of ground pork, 1 tbsp of potato starch, 1 tbsp of cooking sake, 1 tsp of chicken bouillon powder, and 1 tsp of minced garlic. Mix until it becomes sticky.
- Add the water-squeezed bean sprouts to the kneaded meat mixture and mix until evenly combined.
- Take portions of the meat mixture in your hands, squeeze them, and form into round balls.
- Lightly oil a frying pan.
- Place a molded meatball onto the shredded gyoza wrappers. Roll it in your hands to coat the surface with the wrappers and ensure they stick firmly.
- Arrange the shumai coated with gyoza wrappers in the oiled frying pan.
- Cook over medium heat until the bottoms of the shumai are browned.
- Once browned, pour 100ml of water around the edge of the frying pan.
- Cover with a lid and steam-heat over low heat for 10 minutes. [This is the key!] If you have any leftover gyoza wrappers, you can place them on top of the shumai during steaming to use them up.
- Remove the lid and increase heat to medium-high to evaporate any remaining moisture in the pan.
- Drizzle 1 tsp of sesame oil and cook until the shumai develops a nice golden-brown color. [This is the key!] The aroma and savory crispiness from the sesame oil added at the end will whet your appetite.
- Once the shumai have a good brown sear and easily slide off the pan, turn off the heat.
- Transfer the cooked shumai to a plate.
- Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds as desired.
- Serve with ponzu sauce, soy sauce and vinegar mix, and Japanese mustard as desired.
