An interesting idea of making manti in the form of sunny carrots simply charges with vitamins and great mood. An unusual dough recipe is also used - the flour is brewed with boiling carrot juice, and eggs are not used.
It is necessary
- - 2 carrots;
- - 2 cloves of garlic;
- - 30 g of soy sauce;
- - 5 g of rice vinegar;
- - 15 g of grated ginger;
- - 80-100 g of dried mushrooms;
- - 3/4 cup corn kernels;
- - 10 g of corn starch;
- - half a bunch of green onions (20 g);
- - 1 tablespoon of sunflower oil;
- - 1 teaspoon of sesame oil;
- For the test:
- - 500 g flour;
- - 3/4 cup carrot juice;
- - green onions (for decoration);
Instructions
Step 1
Rinse the dried mushrooms, soak in water overnight, pressing down with something on top so that they are all submerged in the water and do not float on the surface. Drain the water from the mushrooms in the morning into a separate container, it will still come in handy. Squeeze the mushrooms lightly and chop finely.
Step 2
Make a dough. Pour flour into a container with a slide and make a depression in it. Bring the carrot juice to a boil, pour it into the flour and stir quickly with a wooden spoon so that the juice is evenly combined with the flour. Knead the dough until smooth, cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
Step 3
Combine soy sauce with 1/4 cup dried mushroom water, vinegar, and sesame oil. Dissolve the cornstarch separately with one tablespoon of mushroom water. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute the garlic and ginger for about 30 seconds.
Step 4
Then add mushrooms, diced carrots and corn. Simmer for another two minutes. Add the soy-sesame mixture to the mushrooms and simmer for a few minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
Step 5
Stir in the soaked cornstarch again and place in the filled skillet, stir well. Turn off the heat and put the green onions in the filling. Leave to cool. The filling can be prepared in advance (without green onions) and stored for two days in the refrigerator.
Step 6
Collect carrots. Divide the dough into 8 pieces and keep it covered with a damp towel or plastic wrap at all times to keep it from drying out. Form one part of the dough into a ball and roll it into a circle with a diameter of 6 cm. Cut the circle into 4 sectors, like a pizza. Roll a cone from each sector, connecting the edges. Fill the first 4 cones with the filling, tamp down thoroughly with a spoon.
Step 7
"Seal" the cone and smooth out the irregularities with your fingers, forming a regular carrot. Insert green onion tails. Place the "carrots" in a double boiler seam down on oiled parchment and cover them with a damp cloth to keep them dry.
Step 8
So, make the rest of the carrots. Steam the manti-"carrots" for 10 minutes. Serve hot with soy sauce.
