Hê-jîn bah-ôan

(蝦仁肉丸, Shrimp and Meat Dumplings, Shrimp and Pork Meatballs)

Hê-jîn bah-ôan is a type of Taiwanese dumpling that consists of a mixture of shrimps and meat (usually pork) encased within a thin, soft, and slightly chewy rice flour shell. A Tainan specialty, this shrimp and meat dumpling is typically steamed or boiled and then served in a sauce based on sweet soy sauce.


The dish is generally accompanied by a variety of condiments such as garlic sauce, wasabi sauce, and mildly hot pepper sauce. Hê-jîn bah-ôan is usually eaten as a snack, an appetizer, or a side, and it can alternatively be made with potato starch instead of rice.
