Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Filling:
  2. Finely mince the shrimp.
  3. Combine the egg white and cornstarch.
  4. Mix all the filling ingredients together and refrigerate while preparing the dough.
  5. Dumpling Dough:
  6. Combine the wheat starch and the potato starch in a mixing bowl. Stir in the salt, then gradually add the boiling water while stirring. Wait 5 minutes until the dough has cooled a bit.
  7. While it is still warm mix in the lard a tiny bit at a time.
  8. Knead the dough until it is smooth and the lard is mixed in.
  9. Let the dough rest for at least 15 minutes.
  10. To prepare the wrappers:
  11. Lay a large piece of wax paper on countertop.
  12. Take a heaping teaspoon of dough (approximately a 1-inch ball), roll into a ball and flatten.
  13. Lay the dough out on the wax paper and roll out until approximately three inches in diameter.
  14. Cover the wrappers to keep from drying out while preparing the remaining dough.
  15. Prepare the Dumplings:
  16. Take a level teaspoon of filling and place in the middle of the wrapper.
  17. Spread so that it is not too thick in the middle or the wrapper may break.
  18. Gently fold the wrapper over the filling.
  19. Pleat the edges to seal.
  20. Continue with the remainder of the dumplings.
  21. To Cook:
  22. Steam the dumplings over boiling water in a bamboo steamer (can be purchased at Chinese grocery) until they are transparent, between 3 to 5 minutes.
  23. Serve hot with chili oil dipping sauce
