Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground pork
• 1 cup Cabbage (finely chopped)
• 2 stalks Green onion (finely chopped)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for soy-free)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 0.33 cup Hot water
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Coconut oil (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, finely chopped cabbage, green onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce (or coconut aminos), sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the filling is evenly combined. Set aside.

Step 2

In another bowl, whisk together almond flour, psyllium husk powder, xanthan gum, and a pinch of salt to create the dumpling wrapper mix.

Step 3

Slowly pour hot water into the flour mixture while stirring with a spatula until a dough forms. Knead the dough with your hands for about 1-2 minutes until smooth, then cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Step 4

Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and flatten it between two sheets of parchment paper to form a thin, round wrapper, about 3-4 inches in diameter.

Step 5

Place a small amount (about 1 tablespoon) of the pork filling in the center of each wrapper. Carefully fold the edges of the wrapper around the filling and pinch the edges together to form a sealed dumpling.

Step 6

Grease a steam basket or bamboo steamer with a small amount of coconut oil to prevent sticking. Arrange the dumplings in the steamer, making sure they do not touch each other.

Step 7

Bring a pot of water to a boil and place the steamer over the pot. Steam the dumplings for 8-10 minutes, or until the pork is fully cooked through.

Step 8

Remove the dumplings from the steamer and serve hot with low-carb dipping sauces, such as a mixture of soy sauce and vinegar or chili oil.
