Description

Crispy, golden rice paper dumplings filled with a savory cabbage and shiitake mixture. Gluten-free, vegan, and ready in 35 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale

8 oz. coleslaw mix (finely shredded cabbage and carrots)

3.5 oz fresh shiitake, diced

0.3 oz ginger, grated

0.3 oz garlic, grated (2 cloves)

3 bulb scallions, diced

4 tbsp avocado oil, divided

¼ tsp coarse sea salt, plus a small pinch

1 tbsp coconut aminos or low-sodium soy sauce

2 tsp toasted sesame oil

10 pieces rice paper (22 cm each)

Dipping Sauce:

1.5 tbsp coconut aminos or 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1–2 tsp toasted sesame oil

⅛–¼ tsp sriracha (optional)

Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds (optional)


Instructions

1. Prepare vegetables and shiitake mushrooms.

2. Heat oil; sauté garlic, ginger, scallions with salt until fragrant.

3. Add coleslaw mix and shiitake; season and cook 3 minutes.

4. Cool filling.

5. Dip rice paper in water 5–10 seconds.

6. Place filling and fold into dumplings.

7. Pan-fry with oil 3 minutes per side until golden brown or air-fry at 380°F for 12–15 minutes.

8. Serve hot with dipping sauce.

Notes

Avoid over-soaking rice paper; it continues to soften after dipping.

Use double layers for extra crispy texture.

Serve immediately after cooking for the best crunch.
