Hong Kong Style Fish Shumai (siu mai) 港式魚肉燒賣
When talk about Cantonese Dim Sum, I am sure you have tried Shumai (siu mai). The small yellow wrapper with pork and shrimps. So Yummy!
However, this fish siu mai is different, it wrapped with fish (of course!) It is one of the most popular Hong Kong street food. In UK, I can’t find fish siu mai, so I better make it myself. You can choose whatever fish you like, I am lazy, so I used the frozen fish fillet. They are so easy to make and it taste just like like Hong Kong!
Sesame Crisps 芝麻脆片
We love to use sesame oil when come to cooking, it is flavourful and make the dish into next level. We also love to use sesame seeds to make candy, crunchy and delicious. There are difference between the taste of white and black sesame seeds, for this recipe, you can use any of your desire.
These sesame crisps are more like very thin cookies, the thinner you make the crispier. It is very simple, quick and easy recipe. Perfect snack and hope you like it!
