Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free flour
• 0.5 cup Tapioca starch
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1.25 cups Hot water
• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 cup Chives, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons Tamari sauce (gluten-free soy sauce)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.25 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, tapioca starch, and xanthan gum.

Step 2

Slowly add hot water to the flour mixture, stirring continuously until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it's smooth and pliable. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.

Step 3

In another bowl, mix the ground beef, chives, garlic, ginger, tamari sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Step 4

Divide the rested dough into 24 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten into a thin circle about 3 inches in diameter.

Step 5

Place about 1 tablespoon of the beef filling in the center of each wrapper.

Step 6

Fold the wrapper in half to encase the filling and pinch the edges together to seal. If necessary, moisten the edges with a little water to ensure a good seal.

Step 7

Prepare a steamer by lining it with parchment paper or cabbage leaves to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Place the dumplings in the steamer, making sure they do not touch.

Step 9

Steam the dumplings over medium heat for about 18-20 minutes or until the filling is cooked and the wrappers become translucent.

Step 10

Serve the dumplings hot, optionally with tamari sauce or a dipping sauce of your choice.
