Hi maangchi, I can’t eat beef, so what can I replace it with?
You could use extra pork, or like Maangchi says in the video, use more tofu and mushrooms. I’m going to make these soon, so I’ll use all tofu! It makes delicious dumplings.
Thank you so much for answering on behalf of me! You are awesome!
My family loves Mandu!!!! And I love your easy to make recipe. The wanton wrappers work great. This was my first time making them and they turned out so good, that I impressed my Korean friend. Can’t wait to try more!! Thank you for your awesome website!!!
yay, you are impressing me now! Cheers!
Maangchi!! Tq for your mandu recipe!! :)
I often makes this & always have a frozen mandu at my fridge, my sons and husband love it so much :)
I post this recipe at my blog today : http://elieslie.blogspot.com/2011/09/mandu-korean-dumpling-with-tofu.html
tq for the recipe maangchi, as always u’re the master of korean cooking! ;)
Your mandu looks great! Delicious!
Hey-I’ve had premade mandu here in South Korea, but I’m wanting to make my own when I get back to Canada. Unfortunately Korean/Asian grocery stores are few and far between. Is a wonton wrapper a decent substitute for mandu skins? Is there something better?
Thanks!
“Is a wonton wrapper a decent substitute for mandu skins?” yes, indeed!
how can I steam them …..sorry first time cooking … I did fry that was very good ..at the moment I don’t have dried anchovies so I like to try stem them ,,,,, any advice ( I do have electric steamer and wood steamer ( which I never use becouse I don’t know how ) thank you
My mother used to put some type of clear noodle in with the mandu.. Do you know what that is?
yes, it’s dangmyeon (당면)in Korean: starch noodles or glass noodles https://www.maangchi.com/ingredients/starch-noodles
Hey Maangchi, how long can the frozen ones be kept for?
I think it will be ok up to 2 months in the freezer.
Making dumpling is also one of my favorite. In fact, I make my own mandu. The filling is another record for my recipe as this is another new kind. Thanks to dear Maangchi. You’re such a great help. I am still following more on your recipes. Thanks a lot.
Hi there Maangchi!!!! I finally made steamed pork mandu plus Sigeumchi namool…totally success at home (my husband almost finished the mandu barch and left me just a few to taste ^^)!!!
Although i went trough some “technical” problems (i´m almost burned down my poor bamboo steamer) and i think the sesame oil was a little bit stronger, maybe i used more than recommended.
Hope you may help me out, how should i prevent the mandu to stick in the bamboo steamer? Should i try by applying a thin coat of oil?
Thanks for sharing your recepies with all of us!!!!

Hi Maangchi, I´m gonna make mandu tomorrow for dinner, but i´m curious…i recently got a bamboo steamer, could i use it to make steamed mandu??? Wouldn´t be any problem?
Yes, a bamboo steamer will work well, too!
Thanks a lot Maangchi (ohhh my God…you answered to me!!!!!)^^
A couple people in my family don’t eat pork or beef. Is it possible to substitute the meat with turkey or chicken?
yes, chicken sounds good to me!
Oh – and for the record, no eggs were needed – the meat and vegetables perfectly blended and stayed together. There was also no excess liquid thanks to the advice to coat everything with sesame oil individually. This recipe requires no tweaking at all.
I made these today. Absolutely. Incredible! The texture and flavors were perfect in every way. These were definitely better than any dumplings I have had in restaurants. I now have a freezer full of dumplings and they will be eaten regularly!
I made these and they were fantastic. Plus, I have a bunch more in my freezer! (see my adventure in making them: http://ikkin-bot.blogspot.com/2011/03/cooking-korean-mandu-dumplings.html) Great recipe!
These came out soooo good! I never thought I would have been able to make dumplings. Thank you for the thorough instructions. And as you suggested, my family and I had a lot of fun making them together and it went a lot faster. thank you!!!
