Prepare a steamer by filling a pot with water and bringing it to a boil.

In a bowl, mix ground pork, chopped shrimp, diced water chestnuts, minced ginger, and chopped green onions.

Add soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper to the mixture and stir until well combined.

Place a wonton wrapper in your palm and add a spoonful of the filling in the center.

Gather the edges of the wrapper and pinch to form a cup shape, leaving the top open.

Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling until all are shaped.

Line the steamer basket with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Arrange the siu mai in the steamer basket, leaving space between each.

Cover the steamer and steam over boiling water for 8-10 minutes, until cooked through.

Remove from the steamer and serve hot with soy sauce or chili oil.
