Yup, I love siomai! :) I love it with chili sauce, too. But there was one time, I got the chance to try some siomai from another place, it tasted and felt like it was made 90% fat! That was really horrible.
By the way, is that Katherine Mcphee? :)

it is a chinese cuisine and they call it steamed dumplings. It also has lots of variety like chicken, pork and it is even with shrimp. I havent really tried making it myself i usually buy them but my uncle made them lastnight so i ate so many since its expensive to buy in pieces...im planning to make one myself and i even found the recipe here in mylot...i will share it with you if u care to try...do u like asian foods?

Yeah, I quite like to eat siumai. Everytime when we go to dim sum restaurant, we have to order siumai. I suppose it's the most famous dish in the dim sum restaurant. Besides siumai, I like other dim sum too. The one with prawns is very famous too.

Yes, I absolutely love them! :)
I like those with pork filling, topped with a little prawn and then with a little orange fish roe. Those are really good. Especially when they are freshly made.
I like to dip the Siomai in chilli sauce or sambal (which is a Malay chilli sauce that's a little more salty than regular bottled chilli sauce) or also in mayo. Sometimes, I dip them into curry too.

Oh I love siumai and I am indeed a fans of siumai. It tastes so good and I have to agree with you that it goes really well with chily sauce. I love the traditional meat ones which we could eat in the restaurants. I also love the "modern" ones using fish as the main ingredients, those are good too! I could really eat siumai all day *laughs*!

I love siomai and I love dipping it in soy sauce with native lime (calamansi in the Philippines) and chili sauce (dried chopped hot peppers or "sili" in oil). It's good with rice too.
