Ingredients

• 250 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 7 grams Instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 180 milliliters Warm water
• 200 grams Cooked chicken breast, diced
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 medium Carrot, diced
• 1 tablespoon Curry powder
• 100 milliliters Coconut milk
• 50 grams Frozen peas
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 large Egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, instant yeast, salt, and sugar. Whisk until well combined.

Step 2

Add the olive oil and warm water to the dry mixture. Mix until a sticky dough forms.

Step 3

Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.

Step 4

In the meantime, prepare the curry filling. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is translucent.

Step 6

Add the diced carrot and cook for an additional 3 minutes until the carrot is slightly tender.

Step 7

Stir in the diced chicken, curry powder, and black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 8

Pour in the coconut milk and add the frozen peas. Cook for another 5 minutes until the mixture thickens and is heated through.

Step 9

Stir in the chopped cilantro and remove the filling from the heat. Allow it to cool slightly.

Step 10

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 11

Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal portions.

Step 12

Flatten each portion into a disk and place a spoonful of the curry filling in the center.

Step 13

Carefully seal the edges and shape each filled dough into a bun. Place the buns seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 14

Brush the buns lightly with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

Step 15

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 16

Allow the buns to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your gluten-free curry buns warm.
