Prepare the Pumpkin Puree:
To work with fresh pumpkin, start by peeling off the skin, removing the seeds, and cutting it into small pieces. This preparation method ensures easier mashing and quicker steaming compared to using larger or whole pieces.
Next, steam approximately 200 grams of pumpkin until it becomes soft, which typically takes around 15 minutes. Once the pumpkin is tender, mash it into a smooth puree. This puree will serve as the flavorful base for your recipe, adding a natural sweetness and vibrant color to your dish.
Add 20 grams of sugar to the pumpkin puree and mix well until the sugar is fully incorporated. This will enhance the natural sweetness of the pumpkin and add a delightful flavor to the pancakes.
Shape the Pancakes:
Take a small piece of the dough (about 50g) and roll it into a small ball between your palms. If desired, coat the ball with white sesame seeds for an extra crunch and flavor. If the sesame seeds don't stick easily, you can dip the ball into water before coating it.
