About Dimsim

Dimsim is a popular Asian-inspired snack originating from Australia, often enjoyed as part of takeaway menus or casual dining. Typically made from a mixture of minced meat, cabbage, and spices, a dimsim is wrapped in a doughy skin and steamed or deep-fried. It shares similarities with Chinese-style dumplings but is larger in size and tailored to local tastes. While dimsim provides protein and some vegetable content, it can be high in sodium and saturated fats, especially when deep-fried. For a healthier option, steaming is recommended to reduce fat content. Dimsims are a convenient and flavorful choice, but should be eaten in moderation, particularly for those watching their calorie intake or salt consumption. Pairing it with fresh vegetables can help balance its nutritional profile.
