Flour	330-400 g
Pumpkin puree	300 g
Salt	0.5 tsp

Chicken fillet	600 g

Cooking method

• Nikuman - steamed bun (pie), a dish of Japanese cuisine.
• The name Nikuman is also known in the Kansai region as Butaman. The Nikumans originally come from China. However, over time, the dish spread and became popular throughout Japan. In winter, hot, smoking nikumans are sold from stalls on the streets and in stores.
• Any orange-fleshed pumpkin can be used for this recipe.
• Bright sunny dough, in which the taste of pumpkin is absolutely not felt. Spicy, very juicy and tasty filling.
• Preparation:
• Peel the pumpkin from seeds and skin. Cut into pieces, place in a suitable dish with a lid and place in the microwave.
• Bake at 600 W for 7-9 minutes.
• Purée the hot pumpkin pulp with a mixer or rub through a sieve for a more homogenized consistency.
• 
• Let the puree cool, add salt to it and knead the dough. I kneaded in HP on the Pelmeni program. I had to add a decent amount of flour, since I originally added 330 g, as in the original recipe. In total, it turned out about 400 gr.
• 
• For the filling, pass vegetables and meat through a large meat grinder or finely chop. Mix and season with soy sauce, salt and pepper. Grate the ginger on the finest grater, add to the filling.
• 
• Divide the dough into 24 pieces.
• 
• Dip each piece in flour and roll it into a circle 10-12 cm in size. The consistency of pumpkin dough is very elastic.
• 
• Place the filling in the center
• 
• and pinch the dough in a circle with folds.
• When pinched, the thumb is in the center of the circle, and the index and middle finger attach the next fold, given by the other hand. Such a pinch is used to mold whites and open manti from yeast dough. You can form nikumans with a hole in the center, or you can without it.
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• Place the formed Nikumans in the saucepans of the steamer, greased with vegetable oil.
• 
• Steam for 45 minutes. (I cooked in a slow cooker for 1 hour). Serve hot with a sauce of your choice.
• 
• Bon Appetit!
• 
• PS There are many Nikuman recipes ... The dough is made without pumpkin, any meat, shrimp, mushrooms, cabbage can be used in the filling. For some reason I didn't have bamboo at home !!! Well, okay ... and without bamboo we overeat ...

Wow ....
This is the dish !!! 🔗 🔗 🔗
I take the recipe. 🔗
I liked the dough very much, unusual, but with the filling ....: secret: let's figure it out.
Thank you !!! 🔗

To your health, Lyubushka!

Great recipe! And thanks for uploading the video. Because there is the most important Japanese secret: Nikumans do their best on a double boiler not naked, but on pieces of paper. I always have an ambush, even if you grease it with oil or not, they stick tightly. And, it turns out, so simple!

Wow ... Gan, how beautifully they are so juicy .. oh, I can't look at this, and really there were no sprouts? it can't be like that! Japanese Gani has no bamboo .. I don’t believe it!

[Ikra]

Ikra, everyone chooses for himself! I do not consider the use of a paper napkin to be the main Japanese secret, because I am quite satisfied with lubrication with vegetable oil ... I've never had anything stuck ...

weren't there any sprouts? it can't be like that! Japanese Gani has no bamboo .. I don’t believe it!

Can you imagine ??? !!! Horror!!!

weren't there any sprouts? it can't be like that! Japanese Gani has no bamboo .. I don’t believe it!

She just doesn't have a crop this year

Nikumanchiki are cool !!!

She just doesn't have a crop this year

Is there anything to plant in the village with the mother-in-law? Ksenia, did you have any bamboo seeds lying around?

Well, you-uh-uh-e !!!! This color is cool! Appetizing hmm! Thank you. I wish I could come up with a filling without meat.

Thank you. I wish I could come up with a filling without meat.

please - cabbage, carrots, green beans, onions, bell peppers, mushrooms ... will it work?

Ksenia, did you have any bamboo seeds lying around?

Yeah .. I have an uncle on shoe polish bamboo factory works .. I have this shoe polish heaps of bamboo !!!!

Looking at the picture from the recipe on the main page of the site, I decided that it was some kind of stuffed fruit. Very bright things and, judging by the description, delicious.
Checkmark, how you artistically blinded them ... Beauty is a terrible force. I took it to bookmarks, but I don't know how to sculpt that way.

[Gashenka]

Gashenka Thanks a lot for the pumpkin dough recipe. I read the recipe and immediately ran to the kitchen. However, excuse me: pardon: slightly changed the recipe by adding an egg to the dough. The dough turned out wonderful, very elastic. My daughter and I stuck something like khinkali or manty. The filling was made from chicken fillet. And since there is no double boiler on the farm, they just boiled it in a saucepan. The dinner was delicious. Thank you! I carry a plus sign.

[Joy]

Joy, Marish, believe me, it's not difficult to sculpt them, you blind a couple - and you will learn!

Eusebius, oh, how fast you are !!! I would say "like a white lightning !!!" Try, well, please, next time do not add an egg to the dough ... You will see, you will like it !!!

And since there is no double boiler on the farm, they just boiled it in a saucepan.

If there is no steamer, then steam can be boiled as follows - put a colander on top of a saucepan with water, what needs to be cooked in it, and close the lid from the pan on top.

[Gasha,]

Gasha, and if you make dough without pumpkin, then what instead of it? Water?

[Ikra]

Ikra, yes water, but the Japanese add something else ... it is necessary to translate from the video recipe ...

[Gan]

Gan, and the pumpkin dough itself tastes sweet? And then my muSchiny do not favor cloth.
No, well, I understand that you will now say that it depends on the sweetness of the pumpkin itself.

[Gashenka]

Gashenka a thousand apologies for misrepresenting the recipe! I did not know how the pumpkin would behave when cooking. Next time I will definitely try to make the dough without eggs. Even this dough seemed to me much softer than milk or water. I will do more Nikumans. Fortunately, an employee brought me a large pumpkin.
Joy thanks for the advice. I will try to do as you say, but of course I have to buy a double boiler for a long time, but I will not get myself together. And the recipe is wonderful! The most interesting thing is that the pumpkin smell is not felt in the dough. And the color! Mmmmmmm!

[Gan]

Gan, and the pumpkin dough itself tastes sweet? And then my muSchiny do not favor cloth.
No, well, I understand that you will now say that it depends on the sweetness of the pumpkin itself.

Well, now I won't, but I told you !!! Tan, it's not for nothing that ginger and pickled bamboo are added to the filling ... In Japanese cuisine, there is a sweet and sour taste, plus something spicy - ginger, pepper, garlic ... And Nikumans are eaten with sauce ... my husband, for example, he ate and praised with ketchup, although he also does not like sweet taste in meat dishes ...
EusebiusYou are right, the dough is very tender, but very elastic, it does not tear ...

PySy! And this is "stuff. Doc."

Wow !!! Here they are, my good ones !!!

I do not consider using a paper napkin the main Japanese secret,

I will allow myself to fit in ....... this is not a paper napkin, but rice, edible.

[Translation of the Japanese video:]

This is a 5x5 cm piece of inedible baking paper

Translation of the Japanese video:
Dough:

250 g flour
1 tsp instant yeast
5 g baking powder
25 g sugar
1-2 pinches of salt
1 tbsp. l. sesame oil

8 squares of baking paper - 5x5cm

=======================================

Soak the Shiitaki overnight, squeeze out the water (save the water), cut.

Soak the shrimps for 1 hour in warm water, squeeze out (save water), cut.

Drain water from shiitaki and shrimp through a strainer, add hot water to 130 ml

For the test - flour, instant yeast, baking powder, sugar, salt - stir slightly, add sesame oil, stir. Gradually stir in the water from the shiitaki and shrimp, when the dough gathers into a lump - dust the cutting board with a little flour and knead with your hands for 10 minutes. Kneaded dough - smooth, elastic - place in a bowl, tighten with plastic wrap, put the bowl in a container with water 40 degrees C, for 30 minutes. Cover the container with a lid.

Boil a cabbage leaf for 1 min, cool on a sieve, chop finely, squeeze excess water through a paper towel.

Chop the leek stalk finely.

Finely chop the ginger root.

Chop the pork finely, add salt, pepper, sugar, soy sauce, oyster sauce, 5 Spice powder, sesame oil, stir gently. Add potato starch and stir until smooth. Add cabbage, leek, ginger, shiitaki and shrimp, mix thoroughly. Divide the minced meat into 4 parts. Lightly grease hands with rast. butter and form 8 balls.

After 30 minutes, the dough will double in volume, knead, divide into 8 pieces, roll into balls, leave for 10 minutes. Roll out into circles with a diameter of approx. 10cm, place the filling, pinch, place the Nikumans on squares of baking paper.

When the water in the steamer heats up, turn off the gas, put the Nikumans on the grid and leave for 10-20 minutes. When the Nikumans have doubled in size, turn on the burner over a high fire. When the water boils, reduce heat and steam for another 15 minutes.

[Kalyusya]

Kalyusya maybe in other cases such paper is used, but here it is like baking paper.
Here is the recipe from the video 🔗

But I'd rather buy a pumpkin. Something I liked pumpkin dough - both simple and beautiful. I think you can still put boiled corn from a can in the filling. I ate it in Chinese dumplings - delicious!

Yeah, okay, I agree ...

[Lisss's]

I will allow myself to fit in ....... this is not a paper napkin, but rice, edible.

Get in, get in! Welcome!!!

Lisss's, Lyudochek, what should I do without you? You are the best translator in the world !!!

[Galyun]

Galyun, for a good person !!

please - cabbage, carrots, green beans, onions, bell peppers, mushrooms ... will it work?

Yes of course!!!!! I was just thinking which combination is tastier

[HUNTING !!!]

HUNTING !!! take credit !! I made a recipe from a video and posted a separate topic here are the tutu

[Gasha,]

Gasha, Thanks for the recipe. This is how our dinner looked today:




The filling was made from chicken with leeks, delicate leaves from cauliflower, frozen corn and green peas, a small carrot. Plus there was a ginger paste, which I also added to the minced meat. I steamed in a slow cooker, the smell was awesome! And it turned out delicious, eaten with soy sauce and pickled ginger.
I froze half of it, I think it hasn't hurt any dumplings yet.

[Ikra]

Ikrawhat a splendor! Bravo!

Gashenka, take my report too.
