When we go to any Chinese Dim sum restaurants, we always order Shrimp Rice Noodle Roll. It is my children's favorites. The wait staff are often surprised when we order 7 plates of Shrimp noodle roll. "Seven, you want Seven?" " Yes, and we also want some Har Kaow" These are Crystal shrimp dumplings that is our second favorite. After month of research on my mom's Chinese cook book, library, I finally found a few recipes on the internet. My younger daughter who only will eat Shrimp rice noodle roll at dim sum was not feeling well. I promised her all weekend that I will make her the shrimp noodle rolls. So here are our first attempt.
rice flour
3 tbsp wheat starch
2 tbsp Tapioca starch
A scale is handy
Add 200ml of cold water the this mixture. mix well. Then Add 300 ml of boiling hot water and mix well. Allow the mixture to rest about 20 min
Stir the mix very well right before ladle it into the greased cake pan.
Tilt the pan to evenly distribute the batter. You can do this with the steamer lid down if you have a glass window to observe the process. Steam batter on high for 1:30 min.
After the batters firms up in 1 1/2 min, place shrimp along the center and cover the steamer, steam for another 2 minutes till the shrimp is all pink.
Like this.
Remove the pan and place immediately on a cold water bath to cool.

I cannot believe you were able to make this!!! It is also my favorite dim sum dish. 7 orders beats any amount I've ordered (maybe max 4), but I definitely could eat up to 7 dishes. Yumm! - Jackie
