One of the dishes we has on New Year's Eve. Yummm!

Ingredients 

• 1 lbs shrimp
• ½ lbs ground pork
• 2 egg whites
• 2" grated fresh ginger
• 2 tablespsoon sesame oil
• ¼ teaspoon salt & ¼ black pepper
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 3 cloves minced garlic
• 2 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 chopped green onions
• round wonton wrappers
• soy sauce, sesame oil and mirin vinegar for dipping sauce

Ingredients: 1 lbs shrimp, 2 egg whites, ½ lbs ground pork, 2 inch grated fresh ginger, 2 tablespoon sesame oil, ¼ teaspoon salt & ¼ teaspoon black pepper, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, 3 cloves minced garlic, 2 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 chopped green onions	To make the filling, put all the ingredients in a food processor. Run the processor until the meat is chopped and smooth but still have texture.
We use round wonton wrappers	Place a wonton wrapper on top of your hand
Dip a small spoon in ice water. Having a cold spoon will make the filling slip off the spoon easily.	Take a spoon full of filling
Place the filling at the center of the wonton wrapper	Squeeze the sides of the wrapper onto the filling
Fold the edges of the wrapper onto the side of the siu mai. Then tap the siu mai on a flat surface. This will flatten the bottom so that the siu mai can stand	Continue to wrap filling and create additonal siu mai. Steam them in any steaming device, we used a rice cooker/steamer. Whatever device you use, line it with parchment paper and place the siu mai in it without touching each other.
All ready to eat... serve with a dipping sauce of soy sauce, sesame oil and mirin vinegar. You have a fresh tasting shrimp siu mai with a great ginger flavor!
