Ingredients

• 1 cup Rice flour
• 0.5 cup Tapioca starch
• 0.5 cup Cornstarch
• 2.5 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 12 large Shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
• 0.25 teaspoon White pepper
• 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine rice flour, tapioca starch, and cornstarch. Gradually pour in water, stirring continuously until a smooth batter forms. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and mix well. Set aside to rest for 20 minutes.

Step 2

While the batter rests, prepare the shrimp filling. In a small bowl, toss the shrimp with grated ginger, low-sodium soy sauce, and white pepper. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Prepare a steamer by bringing water to a boil over high heat. Lightly oil a flat, heatproof dish or tray that fits the steamer.

Step 4

Stir the batter again and pour a thin layer onto the prepared dish, just enough to cover the bottom completely.

Step 5

Arrange 3 marinated shrimp evenly across the batter. Steam for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the rice noodle sheet is translucent and cooked through.

Step 6

Carefully lift the dish out of the steamer and use a spatula to gently roll the rice noodle sheet around the shrimp, starting from one edge to form a roll. Transfer each roll onto a serving plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter and shrimp.

Step 7

Once all shrimp rolls are made, mix the remaining low-sodium soy sauce and sesame oil in a small bowl.

Step 8

Drizzle the soy sauce mixture over the shrimp rolls. Garnish each roll with chopped green onions before serving.
