Pumpkin, mushroom and walnut nuggets

Preparation

1. The first thing we will do is put the dehydrated mushrooms in a bowl to soak with hot water. So while we are making the rest of the recipe they will soften.

2. We fill the glass with water up to the second mark (the 1-liter mark). We put the varoma in its place with the clean pumpkin and cut into rather small pieces. We program 30 minutes, varoma temperature, speed 2. In this step it would be ideal to be able to take advantage of it to make a soup, a cream or any other preparation that contains enough water or broth.

3. After time, we check that the pumpkin is soft. We remove the varoma and discard the water. We put the pumpkin in a bowl and mash it with a fork. We leave the bowl inclined so that the water runs off. The drier the pumpkin is, the better our nuggets will come out.

4. Without washing the glass, we put the onion and the mushrooms well drained. We bite during 2 seconds, speed 5. We lower the pieces towards the blades, add the oil and sauté for 5 minutes, 100º, speed 1.

5. Next, we pour in the soaking water or vegetable broth. We cook for 5 minutes, varoma temperature, speed 1, without beaker.

6. Add the pumpkin, 30 grams of breadcrumbs, the chickpea flour and season generously since the pumpkin is very sweet. We mix everything during 10 seconds, speed 3, left turn. Add the peeled and chopped walnuts and mix with the spatula.

7. We preheat the oven to 200º with heat up and down.

8. In a bowl we put the rest of the breadcrumbs. With the dough we make balls of about 20 grams. It is a soft dough but very easy to handle because it does not stick to the fingers, as long as the hands are clean. So I recommend that you make the 12 balls first and then roll them.

9. We put a ball in the bowl with the breadcrumbs. We shake the bowl a little and the ball itself is already overflowing by itself. We place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. We continue to batter until we finish with the dough.

10. Once we have all the balls on the tray, we crush them a little with our fingers to shape them into nuggets. You don't need to smash much just enough.

11. Brush the nuggets with a few drops of oil and put them in the preheated oven. We leave them for 5 minutes. Then we will turn them over and leave them another 5 minutes. Always making sure that the surface does not brown too much. Remove, let them warm a little and decorate with a little natural yogurt and some toasted sesame seeds.
