- Get the shrimp minced and finely mix it by hand. Try not to mix it too hard.
- Season with prepared condiments and keep mixing to perfection.
- Put the filling in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to make it easier to wrap.
 

For the wrapping:

- Mix wrapper flour, tapioca and boiled water in a large bowl until your hands feel the nice and smooth dough.
- Place the dough on a flat surface and make each approximately 1-mm-thick circular wrapper.
- Put the filling inside and wrap it up like scallop shape.
- Boil water, put the dumplings inside the bamboo steamer and steam for 4 minutes. Enjoy!
