In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, xanthan gum, and salt.
Slowly pour in the hot water while stirring with a wooden spoon until the dough begins to come together.
Add the neutral oil and knead the dough with your hands until smooth. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let it rest for 20 minutes.
While the dough is resting, prepare the filling by combining the ground meat, green onions, garlic, ginger, gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, shredded cabbage, and shredded carrot in a mixing bowl. Mix well until the filling is evenly combined.
Divide the dough into small portions and roll each portion into a ball, approximately 1.5 inches in diameter.
On a lightly floured surface (use tapioca starch), roll each dough ball into a thin circle, about 3 inches in diameter.
Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half over the filling and pinch the edges tightly to seal, creating a pleated or simple edge design as desired.
To cook the dumplings, you can steam, boil, or pan-fry them. For steaming: Arrange dumplings in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper and steam over boiling water for 10-12 minutes. For boiling: Gently drop dumplings into a pot of boiling water and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the filling is fully cooked through. For pan-frying: Heat a tablespoon of oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, place the dumplings in the pan, cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown, then add 1/4 cup water, cover with a lid, and let them steam for another 5-6 minutes until cooked through.
Serve the dumplings hot with your favorite gluten-free dipping sauce or a combination of gluten-free soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili oil.
