Mix the ingredients together and place in a heatproof bowl. Then place the bowl in a steamer over boiling water. Steam very slowly for about 30 minutes, until the mixture has set. Tips: If you don’t like shrimp, you can simply omit them; you can also substitute them with crabmeat. This recipe is often made with minced pork, but you can vary it to suit your taste.
