Steamed Rice Pork Balls
Little hedgehogs of yumminess...try using a bamboo steamer atop your Thermomix or just plain old Varoma will do a great job.
OH so delicious little bites of pork with an amazing dipping sauce. These are pretty cute on a grazing table, you can go with smaller than we made. Using the bamboo steamer is also a really good idea if you get one that sits exactly on top of your Thermomix lid and covers the hole adequately. You can do the dim sum stack of many baskets on top, though the top layers will understandably take longer to cook.
Enjoy!
