Ingredients

  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 1 cup Tapioca starch
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
  • 0.75 cup Hot water
  • 1 pound Ground pork
  • 1 tablespoon Grated ginger
  • 2 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
  • 2 Green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 cup Shredded cabbage
  • 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca starch, and coconut flour. Gradually add hot water, stirring with a spoon until the mixture starts to come together. Knead the dough on a clean surface until smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover with a damp towel and set aside.

Step 2

In another bowl, mix the ground pork, grated ginger, minced garlic, coconut aminos, sesame oil, green onions, shredded cabbage, sea salt, and black pepper. Combine thoroughly to create the filling.

Step 3

Divide the dough into small balls, roughly 1 tablespoon each. Roll each ball into a thin, round wrapper about 3 inches in diameter. Use additional tapioca starch to prevent sticking, if necessary.

Step 4

Place about 1 tablespoon of the pork filling in the center of each wrapper. Fold the edges up and pleat them to seal the dumpling completely.

Step 5

Prepare a steamer by lining it with parchment paper or cabbage leaves to prevent sticking. Arrange the dumplings in the steamer basket, ensuring they do not touch each other.

Step 6

Steam the dumplings over boiling water for 10-12 minutes, or until the pork filling is cooked through and the wrappers are tender.

Step 7

Serve immediately with extra coconut aminos or a paleo-friendly dipping sauce of your choice.
