Home made Siomai | OFW Craving

Siomai

Siomai is one of the Filipinos favourite food. You can see this in the street food cart, inside malls, restaurants, hotels, etc. It is commonly served before your main dish and comes with varieties of flavours such as Pork Siomai, Beef Siomai, Chicken Siomai, and Shirmp Siomai

Lately, since we are living out of the Philippines we seriously miss and craving for this food. So Mrs. @fearlessfaith and I tried to make them ourselves. We anticipated to be honest that even we achieve making this, this would still far from our original Siomai tastes made in the Philippines. But here we had it a try!

We decided for a Pork Siomai.
First we went to Walmart, the kind of mega store here in the United States and purchased the ingredients we need.

Recipe using 1 kilogram grind pork.

• 1kl Ground pork
• 1/3 Carrots (slice to small pieces)
• 3 Small minced onions (slice to small pieces)
• 1 large egg
• Small amount of salt
• 1/3 Jicama (slice to small pieces)
• Small amount of ground black pepper
• 5 teaspoon veg. Oil
• Siomai wrapper/wanton wrapper

After completing these ingredients, we mixed them together in a big bowl.

Next, using a tablespoon, we put them to a wrapper. Folded it and sealed.

While you're wrapping, you can start boiling your water in a pot with your steamer on top. When it starts boiling, apply small amount of oil to your steamer so your wrapper won't stick in the metal.

In 10-15 minutes you have your Siomai cooked and ready to eat.

In order to enjoy it, we need a sauce first. Here, I made my own spicy sauce.

Using;
Cooking oil, chopped garlic, chopped onions, and crushed red pepper, I suatee them until it looks golden brown.

I also made a separate liquid sauce simply made of soysauce and red crushed pepper.

When sauce is ready, apply them on top of your cooked Siomai.

It looks like this.

Enjoyed eating Siomai while dipping it to a separate liquid sauce.

For 15 minutes you can actually make your Siomai. As easy as that. Why not make some for your self and enjoy it as well.

After this attempt, we thought it was really good. It may not really as good as the taste of Siomai sa Tisa, but it was good enough! We enjoyed it and the next days we cooked another Beef Siomai and Chicken Siomai.

Abot and Pinas!

Until my next blog Steemians! Thank you!
