I usually always bought ready-to-steam Siew Mai from supermarket. First time making myself and so glad my family likes them 😍

NOTE: that the tbsp I am using in this recipe is just a normal eating spoon not a baking spoon.

Steps

1 hour

1

Peel, shred the chayote and put in the strainer to let the excess water drop. No squeeze needed. Take only the shredded chayote. Photo of chayote was taken from internet
2

Mix chicken, shrimp, shredded chayote, egg, garlic, and seasonings until well combined. Lastly, mix in the tapioca flour and mix just until combined. Do not over-mix once you have mixed in the flour as it will give a denser texture.
3

Prepare the wanton skin. Wrap the meat inside the wanton skin. Decorate with shredded carrot on top.
4

Put in a small cup if your siew mai cannot hold their shape well
5

Steam in preheated steamer for 15 minutes
6

Ready to serve with chilli garlic dip. For the dip: boil all ingredients (garlic and chillies) in small amount of water until soft. Put in the blender or you can just mash it with mortar and pestle. Add salt, sugar, chicken seasoning, pepper to taste.
