Steamed vegetables "DIM SUM" recipe

Dough:

• 250 g wheat flour
• 100 ml water
• A pinch of salt

Preparation: Knead the ingredients into a smooth dough, cover and leave to stand for 1 hour.

Filling:

• 50 g chopped onions
• 50 g shiitake mushrooms 
• 100 g pak choi or cabbage
• 50 g boiled chestnuts
• 50 g tofu
• Salt, Sesame oil ,Soy sauce ,Garlic
• Roasted cashew

Preparation: Finely chop the vegetables and cashews. Fry the onion until translucent, add the vegetables and lightly crumbled tofu and season with the salt, sesame oil, soy sauce and a little garlic. Stir everything together and then chill. For the dim sums, roll out the pastry thinly and cut out 10 cm rings, place a tablespoon of filling in each circle, preferably coating the edges with starch and water so that the dumplings do not fall apart when they "stick together". Then place in a bamboo steamer and steam for 12 minutes (alternatively: use a steamer).

Grilled pumpkin & pumpkin cream: 

• 200 g pumpkin
• 1/8 l vegan cream
• Salt, olive oil, thyme, nutmeg, pepper

Preparation: Cut the pumpkin into 1 cm slices, then season and grill.
For the cream, whip the vegan cream. Cook 50 g of pumpkin flesh and strain so that no chunks remain, then stir into the cream until smooth. Season to taste with salt, pepper, lemon juice and a little thyme and nutmeg.
Serve the dim sums on the grilled pumpkin, garnish with the pumpkin cream and roasted cashews, drizzle with olive oil and enjoy.
