Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Rehydrate dried shrimp, shiitake mushrooms, and scallops in warm water for about 15 minutes.
  2. Combine the wheat starch, glutinous rice flour, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl.
  3. Mix in a cup of water until a soft dough forms.
  4. Prepare the filling by mixing together pork, pepper, light soy sauce, pickled radish, water chestnuts, purple shallot, ginger, five spice powder, sesame oil, oyster sauce, and Shaoxing rice wine in a bowl.
  5. Shape the dumplings by taking a small piece of dough, flattening it into a disc, and adding about a tablespoon of the filling.
  6. Seal the dough around the filling by pinching edges firmly.
  7. Fry the dumplings in a hot pan with cooking oil over medium heat until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
  8. Serve Ham Sui Gok hot, ideally with soy sauce for dipping.
