Manti with pumpkin and minced meat

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make manti with pumpkin and minced meat? Prepare the ingredients for the test. Be sure to sift the flour, this will not only remove possible debris, but also saturate it with oxygen, making the product soft and airy. Take filtered and warm water.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour the flour into a deep bowl, add salt and mix well. Beat the egg into a bowl. Be sure to wash your eggs before using them, as even seemingly clean shells can harbor harmful bacteria. It is best to use food grade detergents and a brush. Mix flour with egg. Then start pouring warm water into the flour. Knead the dough first with a fork, then with your hands.

3. STEP 3

   

   If it turns out too steep, add more water; if it turns out too liquid, add flour. It depends on the quality and properties of the flour. Gradually the dough will begin to become homogeneous. Continue kneading on the table. Knead it for quite a long time, about 10 minutes, then put it in a bag and leave it on the table to rest. During this time, the flour will absorb the remaining liquid, gluten will develop well in it, which will make the dough more elastic.

4. STEP 4

   

   While the dough is resting, prepare the filling. You can make the minced meat yourself by mincing the beef through a meat grinder, or you can use ready-made minced meat. I have homemade ground beef.

5. STEP 5

   

   Wash the pumpkin, peel and cut into pieces. Be careful - the pumpkin is very hard, it is better to peel it piece by piece.

6. STEP 6

   

   Grind the pumpkin in any way convenient for you. You can grind it together with the meat through a meat grinder, grate it on a coarse grater, or simply cut it into small cubes. I chose the grater.

7. STEP 7

   

   Chop the onion in the same way.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place minced meat, pumpkin and onion in a bowl. Add salt and pepper. You can also add your favorite and suitable spices. And also finely chopped greens.

9. STEP 9

   

   Knead the minced meat well. For juiciness, you can pour in a little cold clean water.

10. STEP 10

    

    Roll the rested dough into a long sausage and then cut it into small pieces.

11. STEP 11

    

    Roll out each piece on a board sprinkled with flour into a thin round layer.

12. STEP 12

    

    Place a spoonful of filling in the middle of the circle.

13. STEP 13

    

    Pinch two opposite edges, leaving the edges open.

14. STEP 14

    

    Fold these open edges towards the resulting edge. And also pinch it well.

15. STEP 15

    

    Wrap the resulting corners around the manta and pinch. You will get such a neat manta ray. This is one of the sculpting methods that produces round manti.

16. STEP 16

    

    Steam the manti using any available method - in a manty cooker, a double boiler, or a slow cooker. Cooking time is from 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size.

17. STEP 17

    

    Place the finished manti on a dish and serve with sauces - sour cream or tomato. Bon appetit!

Manti are almost always present on the table of many of my friends and many people love them too, really, how can one not love manti, especially juicy ones. Manti is a universal dish, suitable for the festive table and just on weekdays. I also used homemade minced meat and cut the pumpkin into cubes so that the pumpkin flavor was better felt. It is well noted that it is better to peel the pumpkin piece by piece, because it is really difficult to peel a large piece at once and you can cut yourself. I also cut the onion into cubes. And I added vegetable oil to the minced meat for juiciness. You can improvise with the shape of the mantas, the author has a beautiful shape, but I quickly made the usual shape. Cooked in a pressure cooker for 40 minutes. I served juicy delicious manti with pumpkin and minced cobra, we also love it with ketchup and mayonnaise.

I love manti with pumpkin. They turn out tender, juicy, aromatic. And cobra goes very well with manti - a seasoning made from tomatoes, hot peppers and garlic.
