Cooking:

Knead the dough and let it rise for an hour. In the meantime, prepare the filling.

Finely chop the pumpkin and one onion, and chop the second in a blender until smooth. You can twist the meat in a meat grinder if you want to make everything quicker. But the fact is that the classic recipe involves a small cut of meat with a knife so that the minced meat does not become dry after cooking. Although, on the other hand, pumpkin juice makes up for everything.

Salt and pepper chopped pumpkin, add ½ tablespoon of vinegar. Combine the pumpkin with onions and meat, pour in the remnants of vinegar, mix thoroughly. Leave to stand for 15 minutes.

These mantas are good for vegetarian and fast food enthusiasts.

Filling:

300 g of pumpkin pulp;
  4 onions;
  3 potatoes;
  2 teaspoons of salt;
  spice.

For the test:

2 cups of wheat flour;
  1 glass of water;
  vegetable oil;
  a pinch of salt.

Cooking:

Cut the peeled pumpkin into small cubes.

Grind onions and potatoes in the same way.

Onions can be taken even more than indicated in the list of products. After all, it is he who gives the mantas a juicy aroma and taste, and also compensates for the lack of fat.

Mix pumpkin, potatoes and onions, add salt, spices, a little vegetable oil. Leave the filling so that it is well infused and soaked.

Now do the test. Pour the flour with a slide, make a recess in the top. Pour in gradually salted water and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Knead gently, immediately breaking the lumps.

Put the dough on the table and knead with all your strength for about 20 minutes. It is better to entrust this business to strong men's hands or a bread machine. When the dough becomes strong and resilient, let it rest, and in the meantime, pour water into the pressure cooker and set it on fire.

Cut the dough into equal bars.

Divide each of them into parts.

Roll the pieces into juicy 10 cm in diameter. Spread the filling, 1 tablespoon in each circle.

Form manti. First, take the opposite edges of the juicy, bring them together and pinch.

Manti is a very tasty and satisfying dish of Asian cuisine, which is cooked quite quickly in the mantle bowl or in a double boiler. The principles of preparation are simple: first you need to knead ordinary (not yeast) dough, let it rest, and in the meantime make a filling with various spices. Manty is prepared for a couple - in a double boiler, slow cooker, pressure cooker.

Stuffing in manti is the most diverse: you can enter additional components that increase the calorie content of the dish. Vegetarian manti is prepared - from one pumpkin or from potatoes with pumpkin. They will be a pleasant culinary discovery if you think that only porridge or is made from pumpkin.

A more satisfying option is manti with pumpkin and with meat, or with minced meat. Uzbek manti are very tasty and fragrant, if you try it once, you will never forget it.

Step-by-step recipes with photos: vegetarian and meat manti, delicious recipes for making manti sauce, as well as useful tips and little tricks - all this can be found in the article.

In the classic recipe for making manti from pumpkin, meat, of course, is absent - that is, this option is optimal for vegetarians, as well as for those who follow a diet. However, the calorie content of the dish even without meat is quite high - about 200 kcal per 100 g.

This is explained by the presence of oil: the less it is, the less calories. On the other hand, this is a full-fledged dinner, which anyone can definitely get enough of.

To prepare it, take the following ingredients:

  • pumpkin pulp - 400 g (these are 2 small pieces).
  • flour for the dough - 3-4 glasses;
  • 1 chicken egg;
  • 1 glass of water;
  • 2 small onions;
  • incomplete glass of sour cream (when serving);
  • a little vegetable oil (enough 3 tablespoons);
  • salt, pepper and herbs are also slightly, depending on taste.

The sequence of actions is as follows:

Step 1. First, the dough is always prepared - this is a general principle for manti, ravioli, pasties and other similar goodies. The fact is that the flour protein (gluten) should properly swell, i.e. increase in size due to moisture absorption.

Therefore, first mix the water, flour (it is advisable to sift it first) and the egg. Mix thoroughly and add a little salt.

Step 2. You need to knead the dough until a rather dense consistency is obtained. That is, add exactly as much flour as needed.

We leave it on the kitchen table and be sure to cover it with a bowl or cling film so that the surface does not dry out. The test will be enough to lie down no more than half an hour.

Step 3. In the meantime, we will also have something to do. The next step in the recipe for making manti from pumpkin is to peel the vegetable and cut it into arbitrary pieces, as shown in the photo.

  • you can simply cut the pumpkin slices into even smaller cubes and leave them as they are;
  • you can also grind the pumpkin on a grater or in a blender, or you can skip it in a meat grinder.

The option with cubes seems to be preferable, because generally speaking, minced meat for manti is prepared chopped - in the best traditions of Central Asia.

But there is another important point: if you grind pumpkin into gruel, it will inevitably give juice. And then you have to either pour it (which is completely bad, given the benefits of the vegetable), or report flour or semolina. It will not be quite right - we need to get a pure pumpkin flavor.

Therefore, it is better to cut into small cubes, as shown in the photo.

Step 6. Onions are mixed with pumpkin cubes, season and fry for another 4-5 minutes all together.

Step 7. Now the filling can be removed from the fire - it should cool to room temperature. Meanwhile, you can do the test.

Again, we have two options:

  1. You can simply make a sufficiently large circle (if the table area allows), from which then cut the same circles using improvised means (the same glass will do).
  2. A simpler version is to make a sausage from the dough and cut small pieces of approximately the same size. We roll them into a cake, trying to make the edges thinner and the middle thicker.

Step 8. Finally, put a small portion of the filling on each piece.

Step 9. And now, as they say, the moment of truth comes. How to sculpt manti? After all, this is not dumplings and not dumplings, and at first glance it might seem that this is a more complicated matter. But nothing like that!

There are several ways to sculpt. They are clearly shown here.

Step 10. We take a mantyshnitsa (it is a mantle cooker) or a double boiler. This is such a pan, on which a peculiar colander is placed with large holes that pass steam well.

¾ water is poured into the pan, and first you need to bring it to boiling water. A colander with manty is placed on top (previously the bottom must be greased with vegetable or butter). We put on a strong fire and steam for half an hour.

Step 11. So our pumpkin manti is ready for this simple recipe: you should get about such homemade products, as shown in the photo. Serve with sour cream, butter, pepper - in a word, everything is at your discretion.

Manti with pumpkin and meat: a step by step recipe with photos

The previous recipe can be called feminine. Light, diet dish, which, however, it is quite possible to have a good bite.

But what about manti with meat and classic minced meat - can it be mixed with pumpkin-onion mixture? Quite - it will not only be tastier, but also more healthy.

To prepare this version of the dish you will need the following ingredients:

  • 500 g of pumpkin pulp;
  • 1 kg of meat: mix beef, lamb, pork in an arbitrary proportion (i.e. take 2 times more meat than pumpkins);
  • flour - 4 glasses;
  • egg - 1 piece;
  • water - 1 cup;
  • salt, spices, herbs - at your discretion.

You must immediately make a reservation that you can take any meat. For example, you can use the same chicken. Then the cooking time will be much less - up to half an hour, especially when it comes to chicken breast, consisting almost entirely of protein.

In the classic Central Asian version, it is lamb that is chosen, and kurdyuk and the corresponding spices are also put - more on this in the next section of the article.

As for this homemade recipe for manti with pumpkin and meat, we act as shown in the photo with descriptions:

Step 1. First, prepare the dough - there is nothing new, everything is as in the previous recipe.

Step 2. While it lies and swells, cut into small cubes a pumpkin.

Step 3. And chop the onion into about the same pieces. An important point - this time we will not fry anything, because the total cooking time will not be half an hour, but 45-50 minutes.

Step 4. In the meantime, prepare the meat: thoroughly wash and chop. It is best to just chop the meat by hand - for this they take a heavy, very sharp knife and cut it.

Minced meat is not only a tribute to the classical tradition, but also a way to get a more rich meat taste due to the formation of fragrant broth inside the manti itself. However, in a hurry we’ll get by with a meat grinder or a blender.

Step 5. Now we start modeling. Roll out the dough, cut into identical pieces and stack the filling.

Step 6. Wrap it with any of the proposed methods. For example, like this: first we grab the middle.

Step 7. Then fasten the edges, as shown in the photo.

Step 8. After that, just wrap them together.

It is not necessary to stack our products too tightly, because they will also increase in size - so we put them at a distance half a finger wide. Cook for 40-50 minutes over high heat.

Step 10. Serve manti with pumpkin and meat, sprinkled with sour cream or butter. And for lovers of something spicy, you can cook a special Santam sauce.

This is done like this: take red pepper (powder or cereal), dilute with water, add a teaspoon of vinegar and pour hot red sunflower oil. Stir thoroughly - and you're done. You can pour them manti or just dip them in a sharp liquid.

Uzbek manti with minced meat and pumpkin: recipe with photo

Of course, classic manti is prepared only on the basis of minced meat. However, the classics coexist perfectly with modern trends, and why not try something new, not forgetting the good old?

For example, we’ll make classic Uzbek manti with lamb minced meat. But let’s put there also a pumpkin.

For cooking, we need such products:

  • zira (aka cumin) - half a teaspoon;
  • basil - the same amount;
  • hot pepper - half a pod or a pinch of powder;
  • salt - at your discretion.

So, if we take the weight of meat as a unit, then we take a little more than one pumpkin, and a little less onion. As for spices, this is a matter of taste. And the ratio of flour and water for the dough is classic - 3: 1.

We will act like this:

Step 1. Actually, there is nothing radically new. First, knead the dough again.

Step 2. Cut the pumpkin pulp into cubes.

Step 3. We chop the meat with a sharp knife, cut the onion into half rings and add to the minced meat. There we put all the cooked spices, as well as mutton fat tail.

Step 4. Add pumpkin cubes to the filling, roll out the dough and form manti.

Step 5. Cook in the mantovka the same 40-50 minutes with constantly boiling water.

Step 6. Meanwhile, you can cook a simple garlic sauce. We take sour milk or sour cream, we throw in any finely chopped greens and finely chopped garlic (4-5 cloves) - it turns out very tasty and fragrant.

Enjoy your meal!

Manti with pumpkin in our family is at a premium. The first time I tried a combination of pumpkin with onions and spices, I was pleasantly surprised and loved this dish forever.

When you want to unload the diet a little or suddenly fast comes, manti with pumpkin will come in handy. If you serve them with sour cream and garlic sauce, you will not get a lean option, but you should choose which manti sauce to use.

I do not recommend using frozen pumpkin, while the entire structure of the filling changes, not to mention the taste.

To prepare lean manti with pumpkin, take the following ingredients.

First, prepare the dough. Recently, I stopped adding an egg to it, I realized that the dough becomes stiffer in this case. Uzbeks do not put eggs in the dough for manti and samsa. Combine sifted flour, salt and water.

Knead a tight and obedient dough. Be sure to knead it on the table so that it sticks off your hands and cover it with a towel. Allow to lie down for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the filling.

Cut fresh pumpkin into the smallest cube or straw. Never use a grater, pumpkin puree inside - not at all what should turn out at the end.

You can take more onions, usually they take a lot of onions for the filling, I have 3 medium heads. Manti will turn out more fragrant and tastier. Chop the onion into thin strips.

Heat vegetable oil in a pan. Put onion and stew it slightly, only a couple of minutes. Onions do not need to be fried, enough to start giving away its aroma. Add pumpkin immediately. Salt and sweeten. Everything is individual here, depending on the taste of the pumpkin. It is very important to maintain a balance of salt and sweets, otherwise it will turn out just not tasty. For starters, you can add only one teaspoon of salt without a slide and a spoonful of sugar. Try and then adjust the taste to your liking.

We do not bring the pumpkin to readiness, it should remain crumbly, we just warm it with the onion and bring it to taste. Add all the spices and remove from heat. Transfer the filling to another dish to cool faster.

Divide the dough into two or three parts and roll it thinly. It is important to roll out precisely. Cut into 10x10cm squares.

Put the filling in the center of each box.

Pinch the edges to make manti.

Dip the bottom of each mantle in vegetable oil and put on the mantle tier.

Cook manti in a mantle cooker with constantly boiling water for 25 minutes.

Serve ready-made lean manti with pumpkin with any sauce - tomato or sour cream. Have a nice day!
