Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, white pepper, cornstarch, sesame oil, Shaoxing wine, fish sauce and ice water.
  2. Use a pair of chopsticks and mix the meat and seasonings in one direction, until long strands of protein form and the meat forms together into a paste.
  3. Note: If you don't want to do this and have an electric mixer, you can throw the meat and seasonings into a stand mixer bowl fitted with a paddle attachment and mix, in the same manner as making Vietnamese Beef Balls.
  4. Transfer the meat into a shallow dish and spread into a thin layer.
  5. Create a divot in the middle and add julienned ginger.
  6. Bring a pot or wok full of water up to a boil.
  7. Add the pork meat patty to the steaming rack in a pot of boiling water and cover with a lid.
  8. Steam for about 15-20 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through.
  9. Remove from heat and garnish with pickled mustard greens and green onions.
  10. Serve hot with steamed rice.
