Perfect for dim sum aficionados or anyone craving authentic Asian cuisine, this recipe is a showstopper for your next meal!
In a mixing bowl, combine rice flour, tapioca starch, water, and salt. Stir well until you achieve a smooth, thin batter.
Set up a steaming station with a large pot or wok with a steaming rack and enough water to create steam. Line a flat, heatproof dish with a light layer of vegetable oil.
Prepare the shrimp by patting them dry and chopping them into bite-sized pieces. Mix with grated ginger.
Heat one tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium heat and lightly cook the shrimp until pink and just done, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the water in your steaming setup is boiling, pour a thin layer of the rice flour mixture (enough to barely cover the dish's surface) into the oiled dish.
Evenly sprinkle a few pieces of cooked shrimp over the batter.
Carefully place the dish on the steaming rack, cover, and steam for about 3-4 minutes or until the rice noodle becomes translucent.
Using a spatula, carefully lift the noodle sheet from one edge and roll it up around the shrimp to form a compact roll. Transfer to a serving plate.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter and shrimp until all ingredients are used.
In a small saucepan, combine light soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, then remove from heat.
Pour the soy sauce mixture evenly over the prepared rolls and garnish with chopped spring onions before serving.
