In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, and xanthan gum.
Slowly pour in the hot water while mixing with a spoon or spatula until a dough begins to form. Once cool enough to handle, knead the dough for 3–4 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 30 minutes.
While the dough rests, prepare the filling. Heat sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add cabbage, carrots, and green onions. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until the vegetables soften. Stir in the tamari and rice vinegar. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a small ball, then flatten into a thin circle, about 3 inches in diameter, using a rolling pin. Use additional tapioca starch to avoid sticking.
Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half to form a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal. Pleat the edges if desired for a traditional look.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Arrange the gyoza in the skillet, flat side down, and cook for 2–3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.
Carefully add 1/2 cup of water to the skillet and immediately cover with a lid. Steam the gyoza for 5–6 minutes until the water evaporates.
Remove the lid and continue to cook for another 1–2 minutes to crisp up the bottoms again.
Serve warm with your favorite gluten-free dipping sauce, such as tamari with a splash of rice vinegar.
