Mandoo is a Korean dumpling consisting of minced meat and vegetables wrapped in a thin piece of dough. Popular meat fillings include shrimp, ground beef, pork or fish. And popular vegetables ingredients can include bean sprouts, green onions, shredded kimchi and much more.
Korean mandoo can be cooked in several ways: simmered in beef stock, steamed or fried. It is usually dipped in soy sauce mixed with vinegar and served with kimchi on the side. Crushed or powder red peppers can be added to the mixture of sauces to add an extra kick.
