Sweet potato dumplings
Overview
Sweet potatoes have become cheaper and cheaper recently, less than 2 yuan per pound. Our family always eats this whole grain once a week. It is usually cut into pieces and put into porridge, or steamed directly in a rice cooker. That is the simplest and most convenient. I was afraid that my husband would say that I am too lazy after eating too much, so I had no choice but to make sweet potato dumplings like my mother-in-law. It is a little more troublesome, but it is not too technically difficult

Ingredients
Steps
-
Wash the sweet potatoes and put them in a steamer to steam (the two sweet potatoes were sliced and there were too many, so I forgot to take pictures, so I took a few unpeeled slices to take a new photo) (I peeled them after steaming, but it’s not easy to operate. I’ll peel them first and then steam them next time)
-
Steamed and peeled sweet potatoes are crushed with a spoon into a puree
-
Add half a tablespoon of sugar (about 5 tablespoons) and a tablespoon of flour (about 200 grams) to the mashed sweet potatoes, mix well and let it sit like a dough for about 15 minutes
-
Pour the dough back and forth between your hands to make it smoother, and then use the tiger's mouth to squeeze out a round shape. It doesn't need to be too regular
-
The oil pan is filled with oil. I didn’t put a pan of oil in the hotel for deep-frying. It’s better to save some oil if you do it at home
-
Tilt the oil pan so that the oil is concentrated on one side. Put the dumplings one by one. Since there is not much oil, put 10 dumplings at a time. After frying the pan, take it out and put in 10 dumplings for frying
-
The finished product is out of the pan (I like the shells to be golden brown on both sides)
