Ingredients:

  • 1 packet gluten-free dumpling pastry mix 
  • 250g mince (beef, pork, chicken, or tofu)
  • 30g rice vermicelli
  • 1/2 cup kimchi, chopped
  • 1/2 cup minced Asian chives

  • 2 tbsp of soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp of toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tsp potato starch
  • Salt and pepper 

Method:

  1. Prepare dumpling pastry dough as per packet instruction. Use a 9 or 10 cm cutter.
  2. Soak the rice vermicelli in hot water for about 5 minutes, or until soft. Drain and chop into small pieces.
  3. In a large bowl,  combine all the ingredients and mix thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Lay out the gluten-free dumpling pastry on a clean surface. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each pastry.
  5. Fold edges of the pastry over to form a half-moon shape. Press the edges together to seal the dumpling, making sure there are no air pockets.
