Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground chicken
- 50 grams tapioca flour
- 1 medium grated carrot
- 2 stalks chopped green onions
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 10 pieces napa cabbage leaves
- 500 ml water
Instructions
Start by mixing the ground chicken, tapioca flour, grated carrot, chopped green onions, and grated ginger in a large bowl.
Add coconut aminos, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Prepare your napa cabbage leaves by lightly steaming them to make them soft and pliable.
Take a steamed napa cabbage leaf and place approximately 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture in the center. Fold the leaf around the filling to form a compact dumpling shape.
Repeat the process with the remaining cabbage leaves and chicken mixture.
Pour 500 ml of water into a steamer pot and bring to a boil.
Place the siomay in the steamer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded.
Cover and steam the dumplings over medium heat for about 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is fully cooked.
Once cooked, remove the siomay from the steamer and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve your Whole30 Siomay with a side of coconut aminos for dipping or your choice of Whole30 compliant sauce.
