---

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare the Ingredients

Finely chop the chicken and roughly chop the shrimp.

Avoid making them completely smooth—the slightly chunky texture gives the dimsum a more satisfying and juicy bite.

Place the chicken, shrimp, carrot, spring onion, and garlic into a large mixing bowl.

2. Make the Dimsum Filling

Add the egg white, tapioca starch, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, pepper, salt, and ice-cold water.

Mix gently until the filling becomes sticky and well combined.

💡 Secret to juicy dimsum: Ice-cold water helps keep the filling moist and tender.

3. Shape the Dimsum

Place one dimsum wrapper in your palm.

Add approximately 1 tablespoon of filling to the center.

Gently fold the wrapper upward around the filling and shape it into a neat open-top dumpling.

Press the bottom gently so the dimsum can stand upright.

Top with a small amount of diced carrot and spring onion.

4. Prepare the Steamer

Bring the water in the steamer to a boil first.

Lightly brush the steaming tray with oil or use perforated parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Arrange the dimsum with a little space between each piece.

5. Steam the Dimsum

Place the tray inside the steamer.

Cover and steam for approximately 15–18 minutes, depending on the size of the dimsum.

Carefully remove the lid when finished.

♨️✨ Let the steam escape slowly—the aroma will be irresistible!

6. Serve

Transfer the cooked dimsum to a serving plate.

Serve immediately while hot with your favorite dipping sauce. 🥟🥢

---

✨ Tips for Perfect Dimsum

- Use fresh shrimp for a naturally sweet flavor.
- Don't overfill the wrappers.
- Leave enough space between the dimsum while steaming.
- Always preheat the steamer before adding the dimsum.
- Avoid over-steaming to prevent the wrappers from becoming dry.
- A little sesame oil adds a delicious authentic aroma.
- For a beautiful presentation, garnish with finely diced carrot and spring onion.

💜 Serving Idea

Arrange 6–8 dimsum inside a bamboo steamer with a small bowl of dipping sauce on the side.

Add a few spring onions and capture the gentle steam rising from the freshly steamed dimsum for a beautiful cinematic food presentation. 🥟♨️✨
