Pork Siomai is a popular steamed dumpling originating from Chinese cuisine, often enjoyed as part of dim sum meals and widely embraced in Filipino street food culture. These bite-sized treats typically consist of ground pork mixed with minced onions, garlic, and occasionally carrots or mushrooms, wrapped in wonton skins and steamed. While they are rich in protein from the pork, their fat content varies depending on the cut of meat used. Some recipes include soy sauce or sesame oil for flavor, which may contribute sodium to the dish. Siomai is often served with a dipping sauce, such as soy sauce with calamansi and chili garlic. Due to its relatively small portion size, it can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet when consumed in moderation. For a healthier option, lean pork or alternative proteins like chicken can be used, and steaming minimizes added fats during preparation.
