Ingredients

600g minced chicken
1 free-range egg
2 tbsp hoi sin sauce
2 tbsp chopped mint
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
gow gee wonton wrappers
chives, cut into batons, for garnish

Method

1. In a large bowl, combine the minced chicken, egg, hoi sin and mint. Mix well and season to taste. Moisten a gow gee wrapper around the edges with a little water. Place it in the palm of your hand, place about a dessert-spoon of mince mixture in the middle and pinch the sides of the wrapper, leaving mince exposed at the top. Repeat until all the mince mixture is used.
2. Line a large steamer with greaseproof paper and steam the dim sum over boiling water for 10-12 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through.
3. Serve sprinkled with chives, with soy sauce on the side.
*gow gee wrappers are available from Asian supermarkets.
