Flatbread with pumpkin

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make pumpkin flatbread? Prepare the ingredients for the filling. Take refined (odorless) vegetable oil.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the pre-peeled onions and cut into small cubes.

3. STEP 3

   

   Peel and seed the pumpkin and cut into small cubes.

4. STEP 4

   

   In a frying pan over medium heat, fry the onions until golden brown, stirring occasionally.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add pumpkin, stir. Cook pumpkin while stirring until soft. Salt the filling, add ground black pepper or any spices to taste, stir. Make sure that the pumpkin does not become too soft and that the cubes retain their shape. Cool the filling.

6. STEP 6

   

   Prepare the dough for the scones. Measure out the necessary ingredients for it.

7. STEP 7

   

   Heat the water slightly and dissolve the salt in it.

8. STEP 8

   

   Sift the flour into a bowl. Due to the different properties of flour, you may need less or more of it. Therefore, leave a couple of spoons, if necessary, you can add it when kneading the dough. Make a well in the flour.

9. STEP 9

   

   Pour salted water and vegetable oil into the flour, mix first with a spoon.

10. STEP 10

    

    Then knead a soft, moderately stiff dough with your hands, adding the reserved flour if necessary. Wrap the dough in cling film and leave on the counter for 20-30 minutes.

11. STEP 11

    

    The rested dough will become more pliable. It is very pleasant and easy to use. Divide the dough into 10 equal parts and form into balls.

12. STEP 12

    

    On a table dusted with flour, roll out the dough balls one by one into a thin round cake. My cake diameter is approximately 15 cm.

13. STEP 13

    

    Spread the pumpkin filling onto the tortilla, leaving the edges free.

14. STEP 14

    

    Cover the filling with another rolled out tortilla, trying to force out the air so that the tortilla does not swell when frying. Bring the edges together well and press.

15. STEP 15

    

    To ensure even edges of the cake, trim them with a knife or a pastry roller.

16. STEP 16

    

    Heat a frying pan of suitable diameter. You can grease the pan with a small amount of vegetable oil. I did not grease it, since it is present in the dough in sufficient quantities. Fry the flatbread on one side first until golden brown.

17. STEP 17

    

    Turn the tortilla over to the other side and fry until done. If the cake still rises during frying, make a small puncture to let the air out. After cooking, the cakes will still settle.

18. STEP 18

    

    Place the finished flatbreads with pumpkin in a pile so that they remain warm longer. You can serve them with sour cream or any sauce, or as an addition to the main dishes. Bon appetit!

Today I made flatbreads with pumpkin. First, I kneaded the dough, wrapped it in a bag and set it to rest. At this time, I prepared the filling. I cut the onion into cubes and the pumpkin too. Cooked until soft. I took out the dough and divided it into 10 equal parts. I rolled each part into a circle and put three teaspoons of filling inside. For better adhesion of the dough, I greased the edges of the circle with water, covered it with a second circle on top and pressed the edges with my fingertips. Such flatbreads are fried quickly. The finished flatbreads turned out crispy, but in order to make them softer, I put them on a plate and covered them with cling film. Everyone liked the flatbreads. An unusual solution to use pumpkin as a filling - it’s tasty and bright. Thanks to the author for the recipe!

Pumpkin flatbread is a tasty and satisfying dish, an excellent addition to broth or soup. Pumpkin scones are best served hot; I didn’t really like them when they were cold. It’s especially delicious with homemade sour cream and hot sauce (not together, but separately). Thank you for the recipe!
