Notes
- Notes:
- Oyster sauce: The recipe for chili garlic oil asks for oyster sauce. However, you can also use hoising sauce if you like it to taste more oriental and sweet.
- Shrimp: Siomai will taste better with shrimp, but you can always omit this ingredient for any reason. The outcome will still be good and delicious
- Brown sugar: The brown sugar in the chili garlic oil can be replaced with white sugar. If you cannot use sugar at all, Splenda or any similar sugar substitutes.
