Pumpkin, purple sweet potato and glutinous rice dumplings

Overview

Pumpkin and purple sweet potato are foods with very high nutritional value. The chef especially likes to eat steamed pumpkin, purple potato and sweet potato, but I can’t eat the rest after the second meal. Just add glutinous rice flour to make glutinous rice balls, and you can also add various fillings you like. The taste is very pure. The glutinous rice balls can be boiled, fried, flattened and put into the pot to make pumpkin cakes. It’s so casual ~

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare the main ingredients. Steam the purple sweet potato and pumpkin with the skin on. Steaming with the skin on is especially easy to mash, but the purple sweet potato takes longer to steam. I steamed it last night, so I didn’t take any pictures. These are two bowls of ingredients prepared with a spoon. No water is needed. If you like sweets, you can add some sugar. Prepare glutinous rice flour next to it. For me, two bowls of half a pound of rice flour are about the same. Anyway, one pound is enough~

   

2. 2 Put the purple sweet potato puree into a basin, add glutinous rice flour, and then stir it with a chopstick just like kneading noodles. When you see it can be formed, start kneading it. Then add glutinous rice flour little by little until it is no longer sticky, and knead it into a dough. Then do the same with the pumpkin dough. These are the two dough balls~

   

3. 3 Then just put in your favorite fillings. If you have enough time, just like me, first knead the dough into small balls, and then place them one by one. If you are in a hurry, just grab a piece of dough and rub it until it sinks. I used bagged red bean paste bought in the supermarket, and broke the leftover chocolate into small pieces. I added a few raisins when I saw them. Anyway, you can put whatever you like at home.

   

4. 4 After placing the filling, be sure to wrap it with flour and then roll it into a round ball. I just didn't wrap some properly and a few broke. If you can’t finish it all at once, put it on a plate like this and put it in the refrigerator. If it freezes to death, you can bag it and save it. You can eat and cook it later

   

5. 5 After the water boils, put the glutinous rice balls into the pot. The water boils and boils for about ten minutes. The time can be shortened or lengthened flexibly depending on the size of the glutinous rice balls. I cooked it for a long time, and the purple sweet potato couldn't bear to be cooked and burst, and the soup became this color, but the taste of the purple sweet potato and pumpkin was very pure and delicious. If you don’t want to end up like this, you can cook the pumpkin and purple sweet potato separately~
