Korean Frozen Dumplings (Mandu)

Something I do not such as concerning wintertime is its climate. It is simply also chilly, so I am not as encouraged as various other periods to prepare any type of dishes. I simply intend to remain in my space and also cuddle up. Nonetheless, the reality that we need to consume to make it through is what makes me still prepare something. I need to confess that I am a careless chef.

So this is what we had for supper last evening. No rice! No Kimchi! Simply some fried frozen mandu. (We had type of a large lunch fortunately, so we can handle simply some mandu for supper.)

I got these packs recently at Homeplus. It was truly a bargain, since I obtained these 2 packs (complete 2.4 kg) for 5,880 won (United States $ 6.20). Wonderful deal, isn’t it? So I still have great deals a lot more remaining to go however. (I am intending to make some manduguk this weekend break.)

I pan fried them, not deep frying. I assume frying pan frying is a much more typical means to consume mandu as opposed to deep frying in Korea, and also frying pan deep-fried mandu is called “Gun-Mandu” (군만두) inKorean To obtain the very best outcome (crunchy appearance), thaw them totally prior to you prepare them.

You can likewise vapor them or prepare them with a microwave.
If you vapor them, you can obtain an outcome similar to this. (Consume them while it is still warm. When it obtains chilly, it is not extremely wonderful.)

Fit to be tied mandu is “Jjin-Mandu” (찐만두) in Korean and also I directly favor frying pan deep-fried mandu.

There are great deals of sort of mandu, such as Kimchi mandu (김치 만두), Meat mandu (고기 만두), Squid mandu (오징어 만두), Fish and shellfish mandu (해물 만두), also Pizza mandu (피자 만두). The mandu I got was Japchae mandu (잡채 만두).

You can make use of some ordinary soy sauce as a dipping sauce or make some simple korean dumpling dipping sauce!
