How to Prepare

Steaming (recommended): Line a bamboo or metal steamer with parchment paper or cabbage leaves, arrange the siu mai without touching, and steam over boiling water for 12–15 minutes from frozen (8–10 minutes if thawed) until cooked through and glistening — the classic, authentic preparation that delivers the juiciest, most flavourful result and the true dim sum restaurant experience.
Microwave: Place on a microwave-safe plate with a small splash of water, cover with a damp paper towel, and microwave on high for 3–4 minutes until heated through — a quick, convenient option for a fast dim sum fix.
Pan-frying (Potsticker style): Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat, add the siu mai flat-side down, and pan-fry for 2–3 minutes until golden on the bottom, then add a splash of water, cover, and steam for 5–6 minutes until cooked through — a delicious variation with a crispy golden base.

Serving Suggestions

Pork & Mushroom Siu Mai is the heart and soul of any dim sum spread — steam in a bamboo steamer and serve with a classic soy sauce and chili oil dipping sauce, a drizzle of sesame oil, and a garnish of flying fish roe or a single green pea for an authentic, restaurant-worthy presentation. Pair with har gow, cheung fun, turnip cake, and egg tarts for a complete, festive Cantonese yum cha feast at home. Serve alongside a pot of fragrant jasmine or pu-erh tea for the full, authentic dim sum experience. Perfect for weekend family brunches, Chinese New Year celebrations, and entertaining guests — a timeless Cantonese classic that never fails to delight.
