Glutinous Millet Dumplings 【大黄米咸肉粽】


It will be Dumpling/Dragon Festival next week, it is a tradition at home to make some dumplings (glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo leaves) during the season.

I always start my dumpling season with Cantonese Style dumplings, to share with my Cantonese friends, this year I decided to make some Glutinous Millet Dumplings, making it somewhat Diabetes friendly. 

Millets are an excellent source of fiber and contain a number of important nutrients. They score 52.7 on the glycemic index (GI), which is a medium value and lower than the value for maize, refined wheat flour, and rice. 

下周就是端午节了,在这个季节包一些粽子是家里的传统。我每年都是以广式粽子开始我的粽子季,因为俊宝的干妈是香港人。今年我决定做一些大黄米粽子,大黄米有极高的纤维,富含许多重要的营养素。 

它的血糖指数 (GI) 得分为 52.7,处于中等值,低于玉米、精制小麦粉和大米的值,所以这款粽子糖尿病患者也能适量吃一点哦!

1 小勺 食盐
1/2 小勺 糖

1.  Cubed the pork belly into 10-12 equal size pieces, marinate with all the ingredients listed over night. I marinated mine together with the mushrooms. Soak the dried bamboo leaves in hot water for 10 minutes, wash and place them in cold water.

2.  The next day, with a tsp of oil, stir fry the mushrooms until fragrant. Soak the dried scallop with hot water for an hour, drain and set aside.

3.  Wash and drain the moong beans and add all seasonings listed, mix well.

4.  Wash and drain the glutinous millet, add all seasonings listed, mix well.

1.  把五花肉和香菇一起和所有调料拌匀腌制一个晚上。粽叶泡热水10分钟,洗净泡凉水备用。

2.  把香菇挑出来加用一点油炒香,干贝加热水泡水一个小时后,沥干备用。

3.  绿豆洗干净沥干水份,加入所有调味料和食油拌匀。

4.  大黄米洗净沥干水份,加入所有调味料和食油拌匀。


5.  Wrap the dumplings in long tetrahedron shape (also called the Southern shape). There are plenty of youtube channels that teach the method of wrapping dumplings, until I make one of my own, please refers to youtube channel for tutorials.

5. 开始裹肉粽,广式肉粽一般裹长型四角粽,可以网上找裹粽子的视频学包法。


6.  裹好后煮滚大半锅水,水里加2 小勺食盐,把粽子放入中火煮3个小时。确保水一定要没过所有的粽子,间中如果水少了,可以加入热水继续煮。煮好取出即可食用。

6. Bring 4 litres of water with 2 tsp of salt in it to boil, place the wrapped dumplings in it and cook for 3 hours at medium heat. Make sure that all the dumplings are submerged in water, add boiling water in between if needed. Take the cooked dumplings out and it is ready to serve.
