Ingredients

  • ½ lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • ½ cup corn kernels
  • 1 cup broccoli florets, finely chopped
  • 12 dumpling wrappers
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Chop the 0.5 lb shrimp into small pieces and mix in a bowl with the 0.5 cup corn, 1 cup chopped broccoli, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 tsp sesame oil until well combined.

  2. 2

    Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each of the 12 dumpling wrappers. Moisten the edges with water, fold in half, and press to seal tightly.

  3. 3

    Arrange the dumplings in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper, leaving space between them. Steam over boiling water until the wrappers are translucent and the filling is cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve hot with extra soy sauce for dipping, if desired.
