Remove from the heat and allow to cool, then pour into a clean bowl.<\/p>\n<p>For the prawn dim sum, place the prawns into a small food processor and blend to a pur\u00e9e. Transfer to a bowl, add all the other ingredients, except the dim sum wrappers, and mix thoroughly.<\/p>\n<p>Place the wrappers onto a clean work surface and place a small spoonful of prawn mixture in the centre of each wrapper. Fold the wrappers over the prawn mixture to create a semi-circle. Press the edges of the wrapper together with damp fingers to seal the wrapper parcels and crimp the edges.<\/p>\n<p>Place the parcels into a bamboo steamer over a pan of simmering water and cover. Steam for 4-5 minutes, or until the prawn mixture is completely cooked through. Remove from the steamer and serve immediately.<\/p>\n<p>To serve, place the dim sum onto a serving plate with both bowls of dips alongside.<\/p>\n<p>Top recipe tip<br \/>\nThe prawn mixture can be made in advance and chilled until needed. The dim sum need to be prepared at the last minute and served immediately.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By James Martin<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From BBC Food &nbsp; James Martin\u2019s dim sum of steamed prawn parcels are served with two types of spicy dip \u2013 a great starter for sharing. &nbsp; Ingredients For the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20030,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3481,287],"tags":[228,2534,2461,211],"class_list":["post-15596","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-food","category-recipes","tag-dim-sum","tag-prawn","tag-recipes","tag-seafood"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
