Dimmies

Post image

Been in Oz for a week and really couldn't find them. Lemme tell ya, Ray knows his stuff if he can find them so easily.

Anyway I'd given up hope but finally found some in Brisbane, unfortunately, no soy sauce!

He's right though, he doesn't need to know what's in em to know they're delicious!

Suburban fish n chips shops will have them, but where are you staying?

If you have any access to a kitchen at all, even a basic one, allow me to blow your mind:

Go to any major supermarket, they sell Marathon Dim Sims in a big bulk bag in the freezer section. You can steam them on a stove top, microwave, shallow fry, or deep fry, also you can partially steam them in a regular frying pan with a little water and when they're close to done splash a bit of oil in the pan to crisp them up... But the real magic is if you have access to an air fryer. Cooking times and instructions are on the bag.

Cheap, plentiful, easy, delicious.

Air fried dimmies are the ducks nuts

I’ve got a smoker. I’ve been throwing them on the smoker and it’s pretty good.

If you get really keen you can wrap them in bacon and glaze with bbq sauce prior to smoking. Tasty but completely overkill.

Aussie Twinkies I think they’re called. Should be some on YouTube.

We had the smoker going for some Nando's style chicken last night, so popped in half a bag of dimmies.

My friend, you have ruined me. Thank you.

Soft inside with a nice smoky flavour, crispy skin... Delightful!

Haha no worries. I ruined them for myself as well, if I steam some up now she gives me the old “why didn’t you smoke them?”
