Easy Steamed Shrimp Dumplings

Description: This is an easier albeit much less sophisticated adaptation of Hey Jude's Har Gow recipe (#109191). I wanted something I could make up in the kitchen in our apartment in town, which is tiny and not well equipped. For steaming, I used a rice cooker with a steamer basket.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lb raw shrimp, shelled and chopped
• 1/2 cup cabbage, finely chopped
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• salt and pepper
• wonton wrapper, small

Steps:

1. Boil some water to steam dumplings over.
2. Combine first eight ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
3. Prepare steamer -- line with lettuce or cabbage leaves or oil.
4. Making one dumpling at a time:.
5. Moisten wonton wrapper.
6. Fill with 1 teaspoon of shrimp mixture.
7. Wrap up by pulling corners up together and twisting a little.
8. Place in steamer basket separate from other dumplings.
9. When basket is filled, steam dumplings for 10 minutes.
10. Enjoy with a bit of soy sauce or your favourite dipping sauce.
