Ingredients

  • 200 g 5% fat lean pork mince
  • 300 g raw king prawns
  • 1 large spring onion finely chopped
  • 3 cm ginger finely grated
  • 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 8 leaves Chinese leaf cabbage
  • 1 small carrot peeled and finely grated
  • low calorie cooking spray

Dipping Sauce

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 pinch spring onions finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Place the pork into a food processor and blitz on high until smooth. It might be best to use the pulse action on your processor so as not to overwork.. Remove and place in a large bowl and set aside.

  2. Do the same with the prawns, again on high until smooth. Tip them into the bowl with the pork. Don't be tempted to put the prawns and pork in at the same time, it’s best to do them separately to get an even consistency.

  3. Add the soy sauce, spring onion, grated ginger, rice vinegar, salt and pepper and mix well with your hands until the prawn and pork are evenly distributed in the mix.

  4. Take the cabbage leaves and cut out the center of the stalks. Place two leaves end to end on top of a piece of clingfilm.

  5. Shape some of the mix into a rough sausage shape, and place in the leaves. Roll the leaves around the filling and place into the fridge for a few minutes whilst you make the rest.

  6. Line your steamer with a circle of baking parchment, making sure to cut some holes out to allow the steam to circulate. Spray the parchment with low calorie cooking spray.

  7. Take the rolls from the fridge and remove the cling film. With a sharp knife cut the cabbage roll into pieces approx 3cm/1inch thick and place into the steamer.

  8. Top the sui mai with some of the grated carrot.

  9. Place a saucepan of water onto a medium heat and bring to the boil. Place your steamer on top of the pan and steam for 12 minutes.

  10. While your sui mai are steaming, mix your dipping sauce ingredients and place in a small dip bowl.

  11. Remove the sui mai from the steamer and serve with the dipping sauce.

Enjoy!
