These Steamed Pork Dumplings (Siew Mai), together with Steamed Prawn Dumplings (Har Gau) and Roast Pork Buns (Char Siew Bao), are three of the most popular items at dim sum restaurants.

The secret to a juicy, springy dumpling is in the chopping of the filling. It should be done by hand so the meat is not too fine and retains its juiciness.
