Cantonese style shrimp rice roll
Overview
It is a very simple and easy-to-make Cantonese dim sum, and it is also my favorite. It has a thin rice crust with large shrimps inside, and it is delicious with a little sauce. When I made the rice flour slurry today, I thickened it a bit. The rice rolls I made were thicker, but I accidentally discovered that they tasted like the handmade rice noodles I ate in my hometown in Hunan when I was a kid. Cantonese cuisine and Hunan cuisine may seem very different, but they are very similar in terms of raw materials. This is where the wisdom of the working people is reflected in making the same materials have different flavors. Next time you can make handmade rice noodles at home. ^_^

Ingredients
Steps
-
Marinate the shrimp with ginger, pepper and a small amount of salt for 30 minutes to add flavor
-
Add rice flour, starch powder, starch and 1.5 times water and beat well into rice slurry
-
Apply a layer of oil to the pizza pan
-
Add a spoonful of rice milk and mix well until the rice milk is evenly spread on the bottom of the plate
-
Steam for 2 minutes
-
After a while, open the lid and the rice skin becomes crystal clear and translucent, with bulging bubbles in the middle
-
After taking it out of the pan and letting it cool down a bit, you can peel off the whole piece of rice skin, and the rice roll skin is ready.
-
Put the marinated shrimps in the middle of the rice roll wrapper. In fact, you should also add some chopped chives to make it more fragrant. I don’t have any at home, so I will omit it for now.
-
Roll it up and it becomes rice rolls
-
Steam for 3 or 4 minutes until the shrimp inside become cooked and turn red
-
Pour some light soy sauce and sesame oil, cut in the middle and eat
-
The shrimps could be fresher. I used frozen shrimps delivered by a friend from Qingdao. After thawing, they didn’t feel so fresh. It would be better to buy fresh shrimps and process them directly. This dish mainly depends on the taste of the ingredients.
