Method
Whisk the rice flour, tapioca starch, cornflour, one tablespoon of the vegetable oil and salt with 500ml of water until completely smooth.
Lightly oil a flat heatproof tray that fits inside your steamer.
Ladle a thin, even layer of batter onto the tray and steam over boiling water for four minutes until set and translucent.
Lift the tray out and use a spatula to loosen and roll the sheet up into a soft roll, then slide onto a plate.
Re-oil the tray and repeat with the remaining batter to make more rolls.
Combine the dark soy sauce, light soy sauce and sugar in a small saucepan and warm gently for two minutes, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
Cut the rolls into short lengths, drizzle with the warm soy sauce and sesame oil, and scatter with toasted sesame seeds to serve.
