Gluten-Free Sweet Potato and Peanut Dumplings

Instructions

1. 1In a large bowl, add the 1 cup of Glutinous Rice Flour and the 1 cup of Mashed Sweet Potato.
2. 2Gradually add the 1/2 cup of Warm Water to the bowl, mixing with your hands until a soft, cohesive dough forms. Knead this dough on a clean surface for 5 minutes until it feels smooth and elastic.
3. 3In a separate medium bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of Roasted Peanuts (which should be ground or finely chopped), the 2 tablespoons of Sugar, the 1 teaspoon of Ginger, and the 1/4 teaspoon of Salt. Mix these filling ingredients together thoroughly.
4. 4Take a portion of the smooth dough, about the size of a tablespoon, and roll it into a ball. Flatten this ball into a thin circle, about 7.62 cm in diameter, on your clean surface.
5. 5Place about 1 teaspoon of the peanut mixture into the center of the flattened dough circle. Carefully fold the dough circle in half over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges firmly together to seal the dumpling completely, ensuring no filling can escape.
6. 6Prepare your steamer by lining it with parchment paper. Arrange the sealed dumplings in the steamer basket, making sure they do not touch each other. This prevents them from sticking together as they cook.
7. 7Place the steamer basket over a pot of boiling water. Steam the dumplings for 15 to 20 minutes. They are ready when the dough becomes slightly translucent and looks cooked through.
