Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, salt, and olive oil.

Step 5

Place a small spoonful of the meat mixture in the center of each square.

Step 6

Fold the corners of each square into the center to form a packet. Pinch edges to seal.

Step 7

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add a pinch of salt.

Step 8

Carefully drop the dumplings into the boiling water and cook for about 6-8 minutes until they float to the surface.

Step 9

Meanwhile, melt butter in a small pan, stir in red pepper flakes and dried mint. Set aside.

Step 10

Drain the dumplings and serve hot, topped with Greek yogurt and the melted butter sauce.
