Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Ground beef
- 30 g Fresh chives, minced
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce (gluten-free for soy restriction)
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Ginger, grated
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 2 tbsp Psyllium husk powder
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 2 Eggs
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Cooking oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, minced chives, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well-incorporated. Set aside for flavors to meld while preparing the dough.
In a separate bowl, mix almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, and baking powder together. Add the eggs and mix until it forms a crumbly texture.
Gradually add boiling water to the flour mixture, stirring continuously, until a smooth dough forms. Let the dough rest for about 5 minutes to allow it to thicken slightly.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter or a glass to cut out circles from the dough.
Place a spoonful of the beef mixture onto each dough circle. Carefully fold the circle in half to form a semi-circle, and press the edges firmly to seal the dumpling.
Heat cooking oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the dumplings in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the dumplings are golden brown and the beef is cooked through.
Remove from the skillet and serve hot, either on their own or with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce.
