Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Shrimp
- 100 grams Almond flour
- 30 grams Coconut flour
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Ginger
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 60 milliliters Water
Instructions
Start by preparing the filling. Peel and devein the shrimp, then finely chop them. Mince the garlic and ginger, and thinly slice the green onions.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and green onions. Mix well and set aside.
Prepare the keto-friendly dough by combining almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Mix well.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and add water to it. Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously to form a dough.
Knead the dough gently until it becomes smooth and pliable. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions.
Roll each dough portion into a small ball, then flatten it between pieces of parchment paper to create a thin, round wrapper.
Place a small amount of the shrimp filling (approximately 2 teaspoons) in the center of each wrapper.
Carefully fold the wrapper over the filling and crimp the edges to seal, forming a half-moon shape.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a little sesame oil. Place the dim sum in the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Add a tablespoon of water to the skillet and immediately cover it with a lid to steam the dim sum for about 5 minutes, or until fully cooked.
Remove the lid and let any remaining water evaporate. Optionally, drizzle a little soy sauce over the dim sum before serving.
Serve hot with extra soy sauce or a keto-friendly dipping sauce of your choice.
