Pork Siomai (Pork Dumplings)

 

When hubby requests I make something,
No questions asked or second thoughts.. I just make it.
Even though his choice takes a lot of work to make.

He always makes me decide what to cook so I was so excited that he wanted Filipino food.

It does take time to make this.
But, it so worth it!!

You can always buy the frozen ones.

But, there's nothing better than Homemade!

Let me know what you guys think!
