Pictured here I cooked them in some broth and served with noodles and my favourite vegetables.
TIP:
Wrapping dim sims requires a bit of practice, there are many videos on YouTube demonstrating this.
Find a technique that works for you, or
develop your own!
I think I need to start shopping where you shop... ;)
ReplyDeleteLove your picture of your dim sims & broth!
ReplyDeleteI have been getting into Asian delicacies lately - experimenting with wontons & sticky bottom dumplings and now your dim sims have inspired me again!
Thank you!
Where do you get your dim sim skins/wrappers from?
And what is the recipe for the broth you used - its looks light & fresh!
Thanks for your comment. Its predominantly a beef consume / beef broth, Will try and post up recipe in the near future. I buy the wrappers from the asian grocer. Although some supermarkets stock them.
