- Preparation: 15 min
- Cooking: 15 min
- Makes: 1 serving (160 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Pescatarian, Dairy-free
- Contains: gluten, peanut, shellfish, soy
Ingredients
- 30 g Rice flour
- 10 g Tapioca pearls, dry
- 50 g Water
- 8 g Vegetable oil
- 15 g Peanuts, roasted
- 10 g Chives, fresh
- 9 g Shrimp, raw
- 20 g Daikon radish, raw
- 3 g Mushrooms, shiitake, dried
- 5 g Soy sauce
Method
- Whisk the rice flour and tapioca starch with the water and a little of the oil, then cook in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring, for 2-3 minutes until it forms a soft, slightly translucent dough; knead briefly once cool enough to handle.
- Soak the dried shiitake mushroom until soft, then finely dice along with the daikon radish, which stands in for the dried salted preserved radish (chai poh) traditionally used.
- Crush the roasted peanuts coarsely and mix with the chopped chives, shrimp, mushroom, daikon and soy sauce to make the filling.
- Pinch off small pieces of the dough, flatten into thin discs, and fold around a spoonful of filling, pleating the edge to seal into a half-moon dumpling.
- Brush the dumplings with the remaining oil and steam over boiling water for 8-10 minutes until translucent, then serve hot.
