     Shrimp and cilantro shu mai

Category   Appetizers
Sub Category   None

Ingredients
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/2 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 cup roughly chopped scallions, white parts only
1/2 to 3/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
10 to 12 round dumpling skins
Salt
 
Juice of 1 lime

Instructions
Combine the soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil and ginger in a bowl. Put half the shrimp, the scallions and half the cilantro in a food processor and pulse. Add just enough of the soy mixture to create a smooth paste, about 1 to 2 tablespoons. Transfer to a bowl. Roughly chop the remaining shrimp and cilantro, add them to the bowl and stir to combine.
Lay a dumpling skin on a work surface, moisten the edges with water, and put 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center. Gather the edges of the wrapper up around the filling, squeezing gently, to pleat the sides. Some of the filling should remain exposed. Repeat with the remaining dumpling skins and filling, keeping the dumpling wrappers and dumplings covered with damp towels while you work.
Rig a steamer in a large pot over one inch of water and bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Meanwhile, add the lime juice to the remaining soy mixture to make a dipping sauce.
Put as many dumplings in the steamer as you can fit in a single layer and cover the pot. Cook until the exposed filling turns pink and the wrappers are tender, which takes four to six minutes, then transfer the dumplings to a serving platter. Repeat with the remaining dumplings. Serve with the dipping sauce.
