Cooking Instructions
- 1
Roughly chop the pork shoulder into small pieces.
- 2
Finely chop the onion, then mix it well with the pork, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and potato starch.
- 3
Shape the meat mixture into balls slightly smaller than a small egg (about 15 pieces).
- 4
Cut the shumai wrappers into strips just under 1/2 inch wide (about 1 cm).
- 5
Roll each meatball in the wrapper strips to coat, then gently press together with both hands as if forming a rice ball. Use plenty of wrapper strips or you'll have leftovers.
- 6
Place each meatball in an aluminum baking cup and arrange them in a skillet. Carefully pour 3/4 cup water (200 ml) into the side of the skillet. Since there are 15 pieces, cook in two batches if needed.
- 7
Cover and steam over low to medium heat for 15 minutes. Don't open the lid while cooking! If the heat is too high, the water may bubble into the aluminum cups, so watch the heat.
- 8
When the wrappers turn translucent, they're done. When opening the lid, do it quickly to avoid water droplets falling onto the shumai. Serve with a splash of soy sauce in the aluminum cup.

Sublime Homemade Shumai Dumplings Sublime Homemade Shumai Dumplings
Some time ago, I was so busy taking care of my children, plus I had to cook for my large family. I was trying to make as many shumai dumplings as possible as fast and easily as possible, and tried making these quickly in just 15 minutes, using ingredients I had on hand. They looked luxurious, and the taste exceed my expectations and got rave reviews. Since we can all enjoy them together, they've become a family favorite.If you're using ground pork, I think it's a good idea to use a generous amount of oyster sauce.When cooking the shumai, if any of the kitchen parchment paper is sticking out from under the lid it may catch fire, so watch out for that.I recommend serving this to many guests or at parties too. For 4 to 8 servings - 2-3 batches using a 28 cm [11.0 in] diameter frying pan. Recipe by Karenmamacchi cookpad.japan -

Easy and Authentic Shumai Easy and Authentic Shumai
It's my vaunted shumai that's been passed on from my mother. It's so authentic that some people even ask me if I bought it in Chinatown, but it's actually easy to make.The key is to make the onions feel flaky with corn starch. This will help make your shumai moist. Use a steamer if possible. If you're microwaving, spread Chinese cabbage leaves underneath to prevent the skins from drying up. It's well-flavored and shouldn't need soy sauce. For 40 shumai. Recipe by Celery salt cookpad.japan -
