Ingredients

6 servings
  1. 180 gramsCake flour
  2. 20 gramsStrong bread flour
  3. 1 tbspBeet sugar
  4. 1 pinchSalt
  5. 1 tbspBaking powder
  6. 120 mlLukewarm water
  7. 1 tbspCanola vegetable oil

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Add the cake flour, bread flour, beet sugar, baking powder, and salt to a bowl and mix with a whisk.

  2. 2

    Add 110 ml warm water to the bowl as well and mix with a spatula. When it's no longer lumpy, knead the mixture until it has a consistency that feels like an earlobe.

  3. 3

    If your dough feels too hard, wet your hand with the remaining warm water and knead. Repeat this until the dough reaches the right consistency.

  4. 4

    Add the canola oil to the mixture and continue to knead until blended.

  5. 5

    Gather the dough into a ball and place it in a bowl. Cover the bowl with cling film and let the dough rest for 10 minutes.

  6. 6

    Split the dough into 6 equal parts. Turn each piece out onto a dusted surface and use the palm of your hand to flatten it into a circle shape. Roll the dough out with a rolling pin until it has a diameter of 15 cm.

  7. 7

    Hold a piece of dough flat in your left hand and add 1 tablespoon of filling to the center. Wrap the filling with the dough, drawing the edges upwards.

  8. 8

    Lastly, pinch the top close and twist to seal.

  9. 9

    Put the dumplings in a steamer lined with cabbage or parchment paper and steam for 10 minutes
