Supersupergirl's restaurant reviews: Shanwei delights in Hong Kong

In Hong Kong, if you look around there are a few eateries that serve Shanwei delights but due to lockdown everyone is eating at home or getting takeaways before 6pm.

I managed to get some Shanwei delights which can be cooked at home by simple steaming or boil.

The dumplings were all good. 菜粿 , 小米, 薯粉餃, 扁實餃, 芋餃, 冬節鴿

小米:

These were like mini Chiu Chow dumplings.

菜粿:

These dumplings are filled with crunchy Jicama and chives.

芋餃:

These triangular taro dumplings are normally eaten during celebrations, they are filled with meat and taro.

The fish skin dumplings were basically the same as the commercial ones but these are freshly made.

冬節鴿:

These dumplings are traditionally eaten in the winter hence the name winter dumpling and do not contain any pigeons!

They are filled with seafood and preserved sausages which are common around wintertime.

Also tried the above with chili sauce which was even more appetizing.

As well as dumplings, they also have noodles so I made noodle soup with their 扁實餃 which are like mini wontons and the iconic Shanwei Mackerel dumplings 馬鮫丸.
