I have not been participating in Aspiring Bakers for months and finally I am able to make it for this month's theme - Dim Sum Affair. Tried out one of my aunt's dim sum recipe - Ham Sui Kok. Though not a very successful attempt because I find it quite difficult to shape the dumplings. Making dim sum really needs practice. Well... it's still a fun attempt though!

Yum! I think they look great!
hi wen, i tried making this too but eventually was not able to make it cos i failed. my dough didnt turn out well for me and i just couldnt wrap it! thanks for sharing your recipe here.
wow! Thanks! I think the hardest will be the dough.
This is one of my favourite dim sum dishes, but I'm too lazy to make since it's easily available in dim sum restaurants here in Ipoh, yours look great too!
