Soft steamed rice dumplings with savory or sweet filling are a comforting treat. A family-friendly recipe with fresh, traditional flavor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups rice flour, 0.5 cup tapioca starch, 2 tbsp sugar, and 0.5 tsp salt. Mix dry ingredients thoroughly for even distribution.
Gradually add 1.25 cups warm water to the flour mixture, stirring continuously until a smooth, pliable dough forms. If too crumbly, add a teaspoon of water at a time.
Knead dough by hand for 3–5 minutes until elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 10 minutes to relax the gluten and hydrate the starches fully.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Flatten each piece into a round disk (about 3 inches wide) and fill the center with 1 heaping tablespoon sweet red bean paste.
Pinch the edges together to seal, shaping each into a smooth dumpling. Brush the surface lightly with 1 tbsp vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Arrange dumplings on parchment squares inside a steamer basket, leaving space between each one. Steam over medium-high heat for 15–18 minutes, ensuring a steady flow of steam throughout.
Remove dumplings carefully after steaming. Allow to rest for 2 minutes so the exterior sets before serving warm.
