How to Make the Meat filling for Dumplings (Mandu)

In this video I show you how to make famed Korean Chef Beak Jongwon's delcious and easy pork filling recipe for dumplings (mandu).
This pork filling was so easy to make and really, really, really delicious! It'd probably be very good just simply topped on a bed of rice, no need to make dumplings if your just in for a good meal.
If you have the time let it cool down for a few hours or even put it in the fridge and pull it out the next day. Once the meat is cold you will see that the juices of the meat/sauce will all congeal which will allow you a little easier experience making the dumplings and plus it will keep a lot of moisture in the dumpling. The congealed liquids will loosen up upon cooking and the insides of the dumplings will be super juicy and delicious.
Oh you know what! It's early in the year, have you made Korean New Years Soup? These dumplings would be perfect for a little Dduk mandu soup action, if you know what I mean!
Enjoy!

Dude I really like your presence on camera. You don’t give off this idea of “perfection”. The way you cook is how most people are in the kitchen and I think that’s really really relatable.

hey! I really appreciate that :) Thank you!

I did exactly that with the ginger, the skin is good for you, you won't even taste it! Even when I added carrots to mine too, its all good for you so I left it all on. Dumplings are one of my favourite things to make, and I like to take time folding my home made wrappers nicely too. As is said elsewhere here, great normal presence, real refreshing. Keep being yourself, its a breath of fresh air!

Haven't seen you till now??? Glad I saw this. I found a recipe on how to make pork dumplings. Tried it but added ingredients a bit differently. Found out you don't need chopsticks 🥢 to mix to get the smoothness of the pork. I used my hands. Hurray!!! Juicy and delicious. My family will not buy outside dumplings anymore. You are great at this. Keep it up. Thank you for the recipe. L.C

These are delicious. I made a massive batch of these dumplings a few months back and freezed them. I had a little left over meat mixture so I made pork ball soup to go with.

[@patriciaf.v.8889]

Is it good after being frozen?

[@ILoveLLawlietxD]

Do you just throw the balls into the broth? Or is it fried prior? I'm curious

[@laurieherman1215]

@@patriciaf.v.8889 Yes they taste like the day I made them four months in. I olny suggest you pre freez them on a baking sheet for a few hours then place them into a freezer bag or storage container. It help minimizes the dumplingd sticking together.

[@laurieherman1215]

@@ILoveLLawlietxD I drop the pork balls stright into the broth either single serving soups or for hotpots with frineds and I will pan fry a few for some quick lettuce wraps. I am making another big batch today and so worth the time.

Oh jeez I can so relate to you. This is how I measure vanilla, 1 tsp that overflows to around 2 tsp. Ingredient doesn’t look right, always add more ‘cause you never really go by a recipe. I want to cook delicious items and not always go to a restaurant but damn, they’re time consuming and so many steps so you short-cut ‘cause your family’s pallet won’t discern the difference…..

[@ixkamakazxi]

Oil from my understanding is because the meat used is low in fat. The oil substitutes for the leaner meat.
