Begin by peeling and chopping the carrots into small pieces.
Ezoic
Place the chopped carrots in a microwave-safe dish with 20ml of water.
Microwave the carrots until they are tender, about 5-7 minutes, depending on your microwave’s power. Alternatively, you can steam the carrots until soft.
2. Make the Dough:
Once the carrots are cooked, mash them into a smooth puree.
Add the potato starch (or wheat flour) and two pinches of salt to the carrot puree.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more starch or flour until it reaches the desired consistency.

3. Shape the Dough:
Divide the dough into small portions and shape them into your preferred form, such as small dumplings or patties.
If the dough begins to dry out while shaping, cover it with a damp cloth to keep it moist.

You can freeze the shaped dough at this point for later use, or proceed to cook it immediately.
4. Cook the Dough:
Bring a pot of water to a boil.
Ezoic
Drop the shaped dough into the boiling water and cook until they float to the surface, indicating they are fully cooked. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the cooked dough with a slotted spoon and set aside.
5. Prepare the Seasoning:
Ezoic
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, chili powder (if using), minced garlic, chopped green onion, and peanut butter.
Mix well, then gradually add the avocado oil and noodle boiled water, stirring until the seasoning is smooth and well-blended.
6. Serve:

Toss the cooked dough in the prepared seasoning, making sure each piece is evenly coated.
Serve hot, garnished with additional chopped green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
Tips and Variations
Boiling Carrots: Microwaving is a quick and convenient way to cook the carrots, but steaming or boiling on the stovetop works just as well.

Freezing Dough: Shaped dough can be frozen for future use. Simply freeze them on a tray, then transfer them to a freezer bag once solid. When ready to cook, boil them directly from frozen.
Reheating: Leftover boiled dough can be reheated in the microwave or by briefly boiling them again in water.
