Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 g Glutinous rice flour
- 200 ml Water
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tsp Sugar
- 1 tsp Ginger
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 Carrot, finely chopped
- 2 Green onion, finely sliced
- 100 g Mushrooms, finely chopped
- 100 g Cabbage, finely shredded
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix glutinous rice flour with 200ml of water and knead until it forms a smooth, non-sticky dough. If the dough is too dry, add a bit more water, one tablespoon at a time.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 15 minutes.
In a pan over medium heat, add one tablespoon of vegetable oil and sauté the minced garlic and ginger for approximately 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the carrots, mushrooms, and cabbage to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Season the vegetable mixture with soy sauce, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine, and then add the green onions and sesame oil. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Divide the dough into small equal-sized balls (approximately 20g each), rolling them into smooth balls.
Flatten each ball into a small circle, about 3 inches in diameter, and place a spoonful of the vegetable filling in the center.
Carefully bring the edges of the dough together over the filling and pinch to seal it, forming a dumpling shape. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
Prepare a steamer and line it with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking. Place the dumplings in the steamer, ensuring they have some space between them.
Steam the dumplings over boiling water for about 10-12 minutes until the dough is cooked through and translucent.
Serve the hot rice dumplings with your choice of dipping sauce or chili oil. Enjoy!
