Accompaniment Option • Niouk Yen (dumpling)

Niouk Yen is a favourite Mauritian-Chinese delicacy on the island. It is an amazing steamed dumpling dish made with grated Chayote (a green squash-like vegetable also known as Christophine and aka. Chouchou in Mauritian Creole) as well as shrimp, green onions, ginger, cornstarch and a few more flavour-rich ingredients. These incredible dumplings are often accompanied by a mildly sweet light garlicky soy dipping sauce – an explosion of unique flavours like no other!
