In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the warm water while stirring with a fork or chopsticks until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in another bowl, combine the vegan ground 'beef', soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, chopped green onions, chopped chives, grated carrot, and shredded cabbage. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Divide the rested dough into small portions and roll each portion into a ball about 1.5 inches in diameter.
Roll each ball into a thin circle about 3 inches in diameter using a rolling pin.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, then pleat the edges to seal tightly.
Prepare a steamer by filling it with one inch depth of water and bring it to a boil.
Line the steamer basket with parchment paper or cabbage leaves to prevent sticking, then arrange the dumplings in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch each other.
Steam the dumplings over boiling water for about 10-12 minutes or until the wrappers are translucent and cooked through.
Carefully remove the dumplings from the steamer and let them cool slighty before serving. Enjoy your vegan beef and chive steam dumplings with additional soy sauce or your favorite vegan dipping sauce.
