Ingredients
- 500 grams ground pork
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium, gluten-free if needed)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
- 2 stalks green onions, finely chopped
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 2 tablespoons water
- 200 grams cauliflower rice (for serving, optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, salt, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, chopped green onions, egg, and ground white pepper.
Step 2
Add two tablespoons of water to the mixture to improve the texture of the pork and make it softer when steamed. Mix thoroughly using your hands or a spoon until well combined and slightly sticky.
Step 3
Transfer the pork mixture into a shallow, heat-proof dish or plate that fits inside your steamer. Spread the mixture evenly and press it down gently to create a smooth, flat surface.
Step 4
Prepare your steamer setup. Heat water in a steaming apparatus, ensuring the water does not touch the bottom of the dish holding the pork mixture.
Step 5
Place the dish with the pork mixture into the steamer. Cover with the steamer lid and steam over medium-high heat for 20-25 minutes or until the pork is fully cooked. You can check by inserting a skewer or toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
Step 6
Remove the steamed minced pork from the steamer carefully as it will be very hot. Allow it to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
Step 7
Garnish with additional chopped green onions if desired. Serve hot, with cauliflower rice for a keto-friendly side option.
