Tofu and Mushroom Siomai/Shumai
Instructions
Prep:35minCook:15min
Siomai is one of those Chinese dishes that’s made its way to the heart of a lot of Filipinos and has been deeply ingrained in Filipino cuisine. You’ll find it often served in local food stalls and kiosks as a side, snack, or even main (siomai with rice!). When I was still in school. kiosks often served siomai and you can scoop up all the sauce you’d like, which was usually a mix of soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, calamansi (Philippine lime) juice, and fried garlic. Though siomai is usually filled with ground pork, I filled these vegan ones with a mix of tofu and mushrooms, and cooked them 2 ways: fried and steamed! I personally prefer the deep fried ones since I love the crispy exterior but also really enjoyed the steamed ones.
