Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.75 cup Boiling water
- 1 pound Raw ground pork
- 3 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Water
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour and xanthan gum. Gradually add the boiling water while stirring with a fork until the dough begins to come together.
Knead the dough gently on a surface lightly dusted with gluten-free flour for about 5 minutes until smooth.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
In another bowl, combine ground pork, green onions, ginger, garlic, gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
After the dough has rested, divide it into small, equal-sized portions (about 20). Roll each portion into a ball and flatten into a circle roughly 3 inches in diameter.
Place a small spoonful of the pork mixture into the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges together to seal.
Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange dumplings in the skillet, seam side up, and cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Pour 1/2 cup of water into the skillet and cover with a lid. Reduce heat to medium and steam the dumplings for about 8-10 minutes or until the pork is fully cooked through.
Remove the lid and cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the bottoms to crisp up again.
Serve hot with additional gluten-free soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
