Ha Gao (Steamed shrimp dumplings) Dim Sum 蝦餃

Ha Gao is one of the typical dimsums known all over the world. The hard part about these is to make the wrapper and steam them in a way the filling will get cooked while the wrapper will not break and get translucent... well to make it short. I made it and it came out great. I hope this video will help you to make Ha Gao at home as well.
