Chicken Dim Sum with Coconut Milk

Do you want a simple recipe of a tasty steamed appetizer? Advantage of dim sums is that the filling can be completely any from vegan vegetables to a lot of meat and spices. Dim Sum is a whole collection of dishes, which in China are considered light, but Russian people are unlikely to think so. Dim Sum is a small portion of dessert, fruit, vegetables, seafood or meat, wrapped in a thin layer of dough. Prepare a simple recipe with chicken.

Steps

1. Look, everything is simple here – take everything that remains from last day – chicken, meat, maybe some dense sauces, even cutlets. I had this stuffing. Disassemble the chicken into fibers (or cut your stuffing quite finely).
2. Grate ginger on grater.
3. Finely chop the onions, peppers. See the number of peppers for yourself – it all depends on the resistance to sharpness.
4. Connect all the elements of the filling together, add the sauce (I took devil barbecue).
5. Then the most interesting is the dough. Connect an equal volume of flour and coconut milk in the bowl of the blender. Take a cup of milk – pour the flour there. Stir for about a minute and a half. Get a sticky dough.
6. Spread the dough on a dusty surface. Do not interfere a lot of flour, you need to get an airy, fluffy dough. Just to not let dough stick to your hands. Cut into equal parts – decide size for yourself, about the size of a ball for ping pong. Flatten in a cake, spread 1-1.5 tablespoons of filling and protect the edges from the top.
7. Conveniently place finished envelopes in muffin molds, so that they do not spread and do not stick in the steamer. Lay out "knot" down.
8. Put ready dim sums in a steamer and cook for 5-10 minutes. It all depends on your way of cooking on steam. The dough should stop being sticky and get a matte color.
9. It turns out really delicious. The appetizer is very light, low-fat. And you can vary the filling in a variety of scenarios. Vegetables, fruits, meat, poultry – anything!
