Gluten-free rice flour dumplings served

Gluten-Free Rice Flour Dumplings

Gluten-free rice flour dumplings are a perfect choice for those with food sensitivities or simply looking for a lighter, healthier alternative to traditional pasta dishes. Their origin is reminiscent of Asian steamed dumplings, but the combination of rice flour and tapioca results in a completely different, softer texture. The filling consists of fresh cooked vegetables and aromatic spices, making it perfectly suited for a vegan diet. Technical tip: the dough dries quickly, so it's best to keep it covered while you're shaping it. After steaming, they can also be easily pan-fried, so you can achieve both a crispy outside and a soft inside in one dish. This dish is not only healthy, but also delicious and visually appealing - ideal as a starter or a light dinner.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, combine the rice flour, tapioca starch, and salt. Gradually add the hot water while mixing. Once cooled slightly, knead by hand until a smooth, pliable dough forms. Tip: If it's too dry, add a little water; if it's too sticky, add a little rice flour.

    2

    Prepare the filling: In a bowl, mix together the chopped cooked vegetables, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Tip: For more intense flavors, sauté the filling briefly beforehand.

    3

    Divide the dough into small portions, roll out thinly, and form into circles. Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each, then fold in half and seal the edges. Tip: Dampen your fingertips to help the edges adhere better.

    4

    Steam the dumplings for about 10-12 minutes, until they become translucent and tender. Tip: Use a steamer basket lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    5

    Serve warm with soy sauce or a gluten-free dipping sauce. Tip: You can also pan-fry them in a little oil after steaming for a crispier texture.
