     Title: Siopow (Steamed Dumplings)
Categories: Appetizers, Pork, Chinese
     Yield: 30 servings

     1    Wrapper recipe
     1 c  Water
     1 tb Oil
   1/4 ts Salt
     1 c  Chopped shrimp
   1/4 c  Ground pork
     1 c  Minced water chestnuts
   1/4 c  Minced scallions
   1/4 c  Minced onions
     1    Egg
     1 ts Pepper
     1 ts Salt

 Boil wrapper. Remove from heat and pour in 1 1/2 cup
 flour and beat until it forms a ball.  Divide into 1
 1/4 inch balls and roll each until paper thin.  Spoon
 1 tbls. mixture into each wrapper, fold and seal.
 Arrange in steamer and steam 30 minutes.

      Again some expanation... these can be made with
 much thicker wrappers (the ones the street vendors
 sell are more like 1/2 to 1 inch thick) and the
 filling can be just about anything.  I have done these
 with leftover meat and a few vegetables ... such as
 mushrooms, celery etc.
