Kimchi Dumplings (Kimchi Mandu) by Chef Jia Choi

Korean version of dumpling is mandu. Kimchi mandu are popular meal or snack that is served in noodle restaurants and street vendors in Korea. The spicy and sour kimchi goes well with pork but it can be substituted to ground chicken or beef. For vegans, vegan beef which is plant based, works as well. These pan-fried dumplings are juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. It recommended to use old and sour kimchi rather than fresh kimchi for this dish.

I should've watch this before I ruined my chicken mandu yesterday 😢😢😢 I steam the mandu instead of frying it. It became too soggy and also attached to each other. Thanks for the video, Chef Jia. I'll try to make mandu again using your recipe.

The dumplings are beautifully made and fry to perfection. Dumplings with kimchi is heavenly taste.
Thank you for your presentationm👍

I had no idea anyone called leeks green onions. I thought scallions were the only thing known as green onion (leeks are obviously in the onion family, as well).

[@JiaChoiChef]

It's a bit confusing for me. I would say use green onion in most cases : )

[@madonna816]

@@JiaChoiChef Thank you! For clarity, do you mean scallions or leeks? 🫶

[@E30Fred]

@@madonna816 I'm pretty sure the recipe is using "dae-pa", which is a large variety of scallion (pa), and tastes similar.

[@eve_time]

Can i add chicken instead pork?

[@JiaChoiChef]

Sure! Chicken will taste awesome😃

만두 좋아하는데 손이 많이 가서 먹고 싶을때 사다먹습니다 ^^;;
그런데 사 먹고는 후회를 많이해요
기름기가 많이 느켜져서요
집에서 이렇게 만들면 진짜 맛있겠네요
신 김치가 좀 있는데 도전해봐야겠습니다
잘 배워갑니다
감사해요 지아님!
