Dimsum is never ending, there is just a buzz of new recipes that make me curious to try it. Moreover, the basic ingredients do not use meat, it just makes me even more curious. Kalj is again a vegan dimsum made from pumpkin with instant dimsum skin. It's quick and easy to make for anyone, including those of you who are just starting to learn how to cook.
Chayote Dimsum
Intrigued, let's get started by taking you through the preparation step by step!.
Ingredients Needed
Main Ingredients
Dimsum skin to taste
1 stalk of spring onion
1 celery leaf
100 grams of wheat flour
150 grams tapioca flour
2 shallot cloves
2 cloves of garlic
¼ teaspoon salt
Ground pepper to taste
Sauce ingredients
1 clove shallot
2 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon tomatoes sauce
Different from the process of making dimsum in general, this chayote-based vegan dimsum must be cooked first for the filling, this is so that the filling dough is softer and has a chewier texture and minimizes the smell of flour later. Well this greatly affects the level of maturity of the dimsum dough. Let's look at the preparation step by step.
Making Procedure
Making Siamese Pumpkin Dimsum
Cut the pumpkin into two parts, to remove the sap when after cutting the pumpkin I immediately soak it in salt water.
Boil the pumpkin with water until tender and the pumpkin is easy to crush.
Then crush the pumpkin by grating with a grater until finished and then set aside.
In a pan, I prepare flour and tapioca flour, then add pepper powder, salt and also spring onion and celery leaves.
Then blend the shallots and garlic and add them to the flour mixture.
Stir and cook on low heat for a while then add the grated chayote that has been grated.
Stir until the batter contains no more water, make sure the flavor is right and the batter is cooked well.
Take a spoonful of batter, then add it on top of the dimsum skin and shape it into a dimsum
Add celery pieces on top then, add in a mold that has been coated with a little oil. Now here for the optional mold, I use it so that the shape remains sturdy and beautiful when steamed.
Do it until finished, then steam for about 20 minutes in a preheated steamer pan.
Making Spicy Sambal
I boiled all the ingredients first, boiled until tender.
Next, grind it roughly manually, well here I just grind it roughly.
Then saute 1 spoon of butter with chili sauce that has been kneaded, cook until it dries.
Then add enough water then give 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce and also salt cook for a while and ready to serve.
Serving Suggestion
Serve the chayote dimsum with a splash of hot sauce uhhh this is indeed extraordinary far beyond my expectations. Experimenting with new recipes from chayote really yields amazing flavors. If I usually enjoy the usual dimsum, this is indeed very similar to non-vegan dimsum preparations.
The taste is indeed very good and textured. I love how the combination of chayote gives a different flavor in the batter. Usually a batter like this will be more flour dominant but this is just the opposite the flour is only slightly felt.
The texture is chewy and really soft, not hard at all, and what I like the most is that the spicy chili sauce makes it even crazier and it forgets my tiredness after almost 2 hours in the kitchen this time. This is my umpteenth vegan dimsum and it's also amazing, I highly recommend it to you.

They look so delicious. I love that you used chayote. It's something I don't use often but I do love it. The sauce also would be perfect. Very creative. I'm inspired to work more with chayote.
The chayote dimsum hot sauce combination is the best in my opinion, you have to try it!
