Ingredients

• 500 g Ground chicken
• 150 g Firm tofu
• 1 medium Carrot
• 100 g Cabbage
• 1 large Egg
• 2 pieces Garlic clove
• 1 inch Ginger
• 2 stalks Green onion
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Low sodium soy sauce
• 25 pieces Wonton wrappers
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 100 g Green beans
• 2 small Potatoes
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 cup Peanut sauce (unsalted)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, grated firm tofu, grated carrot, and finely shredded cabbage.

Step 2

Add the egg, minced garlic, grated ginger, finely chopped green onion, black pepper, and low-sodium soy sauce to the bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Step 3

Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place a generous tablespoon of the filling in the center of each wrapper.

Step 4

Gather the edges of the wrapper around the filling, pinching gently at the top to seal and form a loose pouch.

Step 5

Arrange the wrapped siomay in a single layer in a steamer basket. Beware not to overcrowd them.

Step 6

Fill a pot with water and bring it to a gentle boil. Place the steamer basket over the pot, ensuring the water doesn't touch the siomay.

Step 7

Cover and steam the siomay for approximately 20 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through and the wrappers are tender.

Step 8

While the siomay is steaming, boil the green beans and potatoes until they are tender. Drain and set aside.

Step 9

To serve, arrange the siomay on a plate along with the boiled green beans and potatoes.

Step 10

In a small bowl, combine the lime juice with turmeric powder and drizzle over the siomay for added flavor.

Step 11

Serve the siomay with unsalted peanut sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy your low sodium siomay fresh and warm!
