Pumpkin and chicken manty
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Manty are very similar to dumplings, but they are cooked in a steamer or a manty cooker, making them juicier. They are eaten whole to prevent the broth inside from spilling out. I prefer chicken manty over the classic version—they're less fatty. And the pumpkin adds a pleasant vegetable note. The dish is ready to be served.

Step 2
Mix flour, water, and eggs to make a dough, similar to dumpling dough. Add vegetable oil, as well as salt and a little sugar to taste. I'd like to note that you might need less flour—it depends on the flour itself. Roll out the dough and place a teaspoon of filling onto each piece.
