Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup long- grain white rice
2 to 4 outer leaves iceberg or romaine lettuce
1 lb ground pork or veal or meatloaf mix
1 tbsp chinese rice wine (preferably shaoxing) or medium- dry sherry
1 bunch scallions (white and pale green parts only), minced (1/3 cup)
1/2 cup diced (1/4 inch) rinsed and drained canned water chestnuts
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp egg white, lightly beaten
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp asian sesame oil
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper

Directions:

Soak rice in hot tap water in a large bowl while preparing meat mixture.
While rice soaks, put a metal steamer rack in a deep 12-inch skillet or a wide 6-quart pot and add enough water to reach 1/2 inch below bottom of steamer rack. Remove steamer rack from skillet and line rack with lettuce.
Stir together remaining ingredients (except rice) until combined well.
Drain rice in a sieve and transfer to a shallow dish.
Roll about 1 tablespoon meat mixture into a ball and roll in rice to coat, then transfer to steamer rack. Make about 30 more coated balls in same manner (use all of meat mixture; there will be leftover rice) and arrange in 1 layer on steamer rack.
Bring water to a boil and set steamer rack in skillet. Cover tightly and steam over high heat until cooked through, about 25 minutes. Check water occasionally, adding more as necessary.
