Glutinous rice warms the stomach and strengthens the spleen. Siu mai is a small snack made of glutinous rice as the main ingredient, with minced meat, shiitake mushrooms, carrots, red dates and other ingredients.

Let's make a small siu mai

【Ingredients】 Minced meat, shiitake mushrooms, red dates, ginger, green onions, dumpling skin

【Directions】

Wash the glutinous rice first and cook it in the rice cooker, some people like to soak the glutinous rice in advance, and then steam it in the pot, but I think it is more convenient and faster to cook glutinous rice in a rice cooker.

After the sticky rice is cooked, serve it on a plate and let it cool for later use.

Pour oil into the pot, add ginger, green onion and fry until fragrant, add minced meat and stir-fry until the meat is white, pour half a bowl of water, pour in light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt and sugar, and boil over high heat for 5 minutes.

While the pot is boiling, the soaked shiitake mushrooms are cut into small dices, and a few red dates are cut into small dices.

Put the diced shiitake mushrooms and red dates in the soup and simmer for 5 minutes, you can make up for the aroma of the minced meat, diced shiitake mushrooms and diced red dates. The minced meat with shiitake mushrooms tastes more fragrant, and the red dates taste sweeter.

Put the minced meat, shiitake mushroom and red date soup out of a bowl, let it cool, and mix the boiled glutinous rice into the soup. It must be stirred after the soup is cooled to prevent the glutinous rice from being muddy, and stirring after it has cooled to ensure that the glutinous rice is distinct.

At this time, the mixed glutinous rice is already very delicious, put on gloves, take a small piece of glutinous rice, and arrange it into a round ball on the plate. This is done to shorten the time it takes to wrap the wheat

The preparations are all done, and the next step is to start wrapping up the siu mai.

In order to save trouble, I bought ready-made dumpling wrappers, which can also be made into dough with flour and water in a ratio of 2:1 and then rolled into a dough.

Take a rice ball and put it in the middle of the dumpling wrapper, and knead it into the shape of siu mai with the tiger's mouth.

Brush the steamer with a layer of oil, arrange the wrapped siu mai neatly, and steam it in boiling water for 10 minutes.

Take it out after steaming.

Delicious family small siu mai is ready, you can freeze a part of the refrigerator after cooling, eat it on the morning of the second day, as long as you put it in the refrigerator the night before, steam for 5 minutes at breakfast or microwave for 1 minute.

Tips:

1. Glutinous rice should be cooked in a rice cooker, and it should be cooked harder, because it has to be steamed in a pot after being filled, otherwise it will not be delicious.

2. When the glutinous rice is stuffed, you must add meat foam or diced meat to make the mushrooms taste more fragrant and the red dates to taste sweeter.

3. Rub the stuffing into a round ball in advance, which can shorten the time of wrapping siu mai, prevent the skin from breaking, and ensure that each siu mai is the same size.

4. Brush a layer of oil on the steamer to prevent the siu mai from sticking to the pan.
