Make the dough: In a separate bowl, combine flour and 1 tsp of salt. Gradually add lukewarm water, mixing until a stiff dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.

Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the pumpkin filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal, creating various manti shapes (e.g., half-moon, pleated).

Lightly grease a steamer basket or the tiers of a steamer. Arrange the manti in a single layer, ensuring they don't touch each other. Steam for 25-30 minutes, or until the dough is cooked through and slightly translucent.
