Remove from the heat and allow to cool, then pour into a clean bowl.<\/p>\n<p>For the prawn dim sum, place the prawns into a small food processor and blend to a pur\u00e9e. Transfer to a bowl, add all the other ingredients, except the dim sum wrappers, and mix thoroughly.<\/p>\n<p>Place the wrappers onto a clean work surface and place a small spoonful of prawn mixture in the centre of each wrapper. Fold the wrappers over the prawn mixture to create a semi-circle. Press the edges of the wrapper together with damp fingers to seal the wrapper parcels and crimp the edges.<\/p>\n<p>Place the parcels into a bamboo steamer over a pan of simmering water and cover. Steam for 4-5 minutes, or until the prawn mixture is completely cooked through. Remove from the steamer and serve immediately.<\/p>\n<p>To serve, place the dim sum onto a serving plate with both bowls of dips alongside.<\/p>\n<p>Top recipe tip<br \/>\nThe prawn mixture can be made in advance and chilled until needed. The dim sum need to be prepared at the last minute and served immediately.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By James Martin<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From BBC Food &nbsp; James Martin\u2019s dim sum of steamed prawn parcels are served with two types of spicy dip \u2013 a great starter for sharing. &nbsp; Ingredients For the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23423,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3481,287],"tags":[228,2534,2461,211],"class_list":["post-15596","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-food","category-recipes","tag-dim-sum","tag-prawn","tag-recipes","tag-seafood"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15596","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15596"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15596\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15598,"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15596\/revisions\/15598"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15596"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15596"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15596"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
