Buuz
Buuz is a traditional Mongolian steamed dumpling filled with meat and spices.
Ingredients
- Green onions (2, chopped)
- Vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
- Black pepper (1/2 teaspoon)
- Salt (1 teaspoon)
- Soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
- Ginger (1 teaspoon, grated)
- Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
- Onion (1 medium, finely chopped)
- Ground beef (1 pound)
- Water (1 cup)
- All (purpose flour - 3 cups)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the flour and water to make a dough. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the ground beef, onion, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper.
- Divide the dough into small pieces and roll each piece into a thin circle.
- Place a spoonful of the meat mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal.
- Arrange the buuz in a steamer basket lined with cabbage leaves to prevent sticking.
- Steam the buuz for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is cooked and the filling is hot.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the green onions and cook until softened.
- Serve the steamed buuz hot, garnished with the sautéed green onions.
