Have you ever been to a family meal in Central Asia? Have you eaten manti? No? Oh, what a pity! What it is? Type of dumplings, only four times larger, not so tightly pinched, with meat or vegetable filling, they are cooked in a special pan - "high-rise building" on a steam bath. If you haven't tried, you have lost a lot!

It's boring to mess around with the dough and filling alone, usually we all come to our mother-in-law, sit at a large table and work collective: someone rolls out a thin dough, someone puts the filling, someone glues the corners crosswise and puts on The "shelf" of the pan. We joke, we sing songs, the children are spinning around - in general, it's fun.

And once they decided to cook on a competitive basis: who will stick more. My husband's sister Mavlyuda and I are one team, the second daughter-in-law and grandmother are another team, the mother-in-law and her eldest daughter are the third.

Everyone's hands are sewn on to their conscience, but my husband's family nicknamed me "Malichka-cosmonaut" because I do everything quickly. Somehow I did not doubt my victory.

We started on command. I will roll out the dough, my sister will put the minced meat, then she rolls the dough, and I pinch.

What the hell? Manti do not stick together - and that's it. I press, I press, I don't understand anything: they don't stick together. Cry at least.

The grandmother was the first to break down and burst out laughing. I look, everyone is already laughing, I alone, like a blockhead, clap my eyes, press my fingers.

And the secret was this: they decided in advance to play me. Mavlyudka had a bottle of vegetable oil in her apron pocket, and she, imperceptibly for me, smeared the corners of the dough with it. The corners were oiled and didn't stick together. But I'm trying, puffing, twirling!

I was offended for ten seconds, then I thought it was stupid: how many people enjoyed the prank! She weighed Mavlyudka a crack and began to laugh with everyone.

Nothing, the corners were sprinkled with flour, slightly bent, and everything began to work out as it should. I marked one mantyshka with a match, and when the food was served on the table, I made sure that this particular product of our hands fell on the plate for my partner. She, not suspecting anything, took a savory bite and howled in a bad voice, because I imperceptibly put two small and very hot Chilean peppers in the meat.

My proposal to lubricate burnt lips with vegetable oil caused another attack of general laughter: what I did, I got it. Never mind, having eaten manti with pumpkin and meat, the victim became cheerful and stopped sulking. Draw in response to draw!
