Khanum with meat and potatoes
The first step is to prepare the filling. To do this, I transfer the minced meat into a deep plate and add lard to it. For minced meat, you can use fat tail in addition to lard. Both of these ingredients must first be crushed.
Peel the onion and chop it into small cubes. I also cut the potatoes into small cubes. Please note that the finer the vegetables are chopped, the better. Because if they are too large, the filling will be raw and can damage and tear the dough.
Add vegetables to the minced meat and mix everything until smooth. While stirring, add a little salt. If you want to make the minced meat spicier, you can add black pepper or a mixture of peppers.
While the minced meat is infusing, I prepare the dough. To do this, I mix water, egg, salt and flour. I knead the dough and roll it out into a thin layer, no more than 2 - 3 mm.
I put the filling inside and roll it into a bagel. I send it to a steam bath for 30 minutes.
As soon as the dish is ready, I cut it into small pieces, decorate with herbs and serve!

Khanum - general principles of preparation
Uzbek khanum is always prepared from unleavened dough. And it is very important to roll it out thinly. Only in this case will the inner layers of the roll be saturated with the juices of the filling, making it very tender and pleasant to the taste. The dough can be kneaded with water, milk, or using brewing technology. Below, step-by-step khanum recipes describe all this in detail. The finished dough needs to rest, then it is rolled out, the filling is laid out, and the roll is rolled.
The most popular types of minced meat:
• meat with onions and carrots;
• meat with potatoes, onions, carrots;
The finished roll is transferred to a tray from a special pressure cooker (mantyshnitsa) or a double boiler is used; a small roll can be prepared in a slow cooker. It is important that the surface is lubricated, otherwise problems may arise with removing the khanum. Steam the roll for 30 to 45 minutes.
The khanum is laid out on a flat plate and greased with oil or fat on top. The dish is cut crosswise, like a regular roll. A small bowl of tomato sauce or vinegar is usually placed in the center.
A little history
The khanum recipe can easily be confused with the instructions for preparing ordinary Uzbek manti, which came to us from the Uyghur Autonomous Region of China.
However, khanum is more like a large, lazy steamed manta, only roll-shaped, and, by the way, in China this roll is called hunon. So it turns out that khanum is not the only name for steam roll. You will be surprised to know that the simple steam roll has many complex names. For example, khanum, Burma, kirkabat, Oromo, or urama, which translated means “wrapped” is also khanum. Proper Uzbek khanum or lazy manti is a combination of dough with lamb or potato filling and spices inside. But, for example, in Tashkent, most housewives use carrots to prepare homemade khanum - this incredibly bright vegetable ingredient, along with its taste, decorates the filling from the inside and gives the dough a yellowish tint already during the cooking process. We decided that we would definitely use carrots to prepare our steamed roll, although we would replace the fatty lamb with lean veal.
What is the main secret?
The dough is divided into pieces and each of them is rolled out into a thin layer. The thinner the dough, the better the khanum will be. The filling is laid out on the prepared layer, and the workpiece is wrapped in a roll. In turn, it is rolled into a ring and then steamed for 45-60 minutes, depending on the contents of the filling. The pressure cooker or steamer grid must be greased with oil, otherwise the roll will stick to the bottom. Its upper part is sprayed with water.
How to cook khanum if you don’t have a pressure cooker or a double boiler? A simple saucepan and colander can help. In this case, the khanum is placed in a colander, placed in a pan of boiling water and covered with a lid.
It is customary to cut the finished roll into pieces, place it on a dish, pour over the sauce and sprinkle with chopped herbs. As a rule, tomato or cream sauces are made for khanum. For the first option, you need to fry the onions and carrots until golden brown, add tomatoes (or tomato paste) and simmer for about 5-10 minutes. Pepper and grated garlic are traditionally added to the creamy sauce.
Improved version
Above is how to cook khanum with minced meat or meat in a classic form. In addition, the dish can be made in an original way. The filling for Uzbek khanum is different: vegetables or meat. There are also differences in how the filling is cut. For example, in Tashkent the filling for khanum is often cut into small strips, and in the Fergana region - into cubes. In Tashkent, housewives also add grated carrots to the filling, making it brighter and more distinctive.
This can be done in the form of pink flowers. It is called “gul-khanum”, which is translated from Uzbek as “colored khanum”.
For one kilogram of dough you should take approximately 350-400 grams of flour, salt (to taste), 1 egg, water, 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
For the filling you need onions (about three medium heads), potatoes (two or three root vegetables), meat (500 - 600 grams), 45 grams of lamb fat (for juiciness), a little salt, black and red pepper to taste.
For the second type of filling you will need onions (two small or one large onion), tomatoes (two, cut in halves), aromatic herbs (dill, parsley, green onions to taste), garlic (two or three cloves). You can add coriander and apply another culinary secret: use cumin (cumin) - the highlight of oriental dishes! How to prepare this type of khanum?

- Be sure to roll out the dough thinly, otherwise it will not be saturated with the juices of the filling and will be dry. But do not overdo it so that the dough does not tear.
- There should be enough space in a steamer or multicooker for steam to circulate freely between the dish and the surface in which you are cooking.
