Home version of siu mai (easy to make)

Siu mai is a very popular specialty snack, and many people like to eat it at breakfast bars outside. Siu mai is actually relatively simple to make, it can be said to be a glutinous rice ball wrapped in bun wrappers or dumpling wrappers, so as long as there is glutinous rice, and then buy some side dishes or dumpling wrappers, you can simply make it at home. The side dishes used to make siu mai usually include minced meat, dried shiitake mushrooms, carrots, pea kernels, corn kernels, etc., and the ingredients can be flexibly controlled. You can also make your own bun wrappers or buy dumpling wrappers.
