These delightful steamed dumplings are filled with a flavorful shrimp and vegetable mixture, perfect for a light and satisfying meal.
Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl, then add the boiling water and mix until a dough forms.
Use a wooden spoon to mix initially to avoid burning your hands.
Knead the dough on a lightly oiled surface until smooth and elastic, then cover with a damp cloth and let rest.
Resting the dough allows the gluten to relax, making it easier to roll out.
Chop the shrimp finely and mix with the grated carrot, chopped green onion, soy sauce, sugar, cornstarch, and pepper until well combined.
Chilling the filling for a few minutes makes it easier to handle.
Divide the dough into small portions and roll each into a thin circle.
Use a small cookie cutter for uniform dumpling wrappers.
Place a small amount of filling in the center of each dough circle, fold over, and seal the edges by pinching or using a fork.
Dampen the edges of the dough with water to help seal the dumplings.
Arrange the dumplings in a steamer lined with parchment paper and steam over high heat for 8-10 minutes.
Ensure the dumplings are not touching in the steamer to prevent sticking.
Serve the dumplings hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Garnish with chopped green onions for a fresh touch.
