CHWEE
Chwee Jia Bao (CRYSTAL DUMPLINGS)
Photo taken by Makansutra
A dumpling wrapped in sweet potato flour pastry skin, looking very translucent and exposing the filling inside. Chwee Jia Bao is originally a southern Chinese delicacy. It is commonly filled with vegetables and minced meat but you will find sweet red beans and even sweet mashed yam. They are kept fresh and smooth all day by sitting is lightly warmed bath of oil, as how it was traditionally. Makes a great snack with Chinese tea or coffee.
