Korean Mandu Egg Roll Recipes

Steps:

• Season pork with ginger and garlic powder and mix thoroughly. Heat mixture in a medium skillet, stirring, until pork is cooked through and no longer pink. Set aside.
• In another large skillet heat oil to about 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) or medium high heat. While oil is heating, combine flour and water in a bowl until they form a paste. In a separate bowl combine the cabbage, carrots and reserved pork mixture. Mix all together.
• Lay out one egg roll skin with a corner pointed toward you. Place about a 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the cabbage, carrot and pork mixture on egg roll paper and fold corner up over the mixture. Fold left and right corners toward the center and continue to roll. Brush a bit of the flour paste on the final corner to help seal the egg roll.
• Place egg rolls into heated oil and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels or rack. Put on serving plate and top with sesame seeds if desired.

Steps:

• Keep the ground beef in the fridge until you are done preparing the rest of the ingredients.
• Mix ingredients in large bowl (it's best to use your hands like preparing a meatloaf).
• Scoop some of the mixture into a smaller bowl and keep the rest in the fridge until you are ready for it (wrapping is time consuming and you don't want the meat to be out any longer than it needs to be).
• Mix a raw egg in a small bowl or cup, or use a small bowl of water.
• Place a "sheet" of the egg roll wrap on work surface in front of you then spoon a teaspoonful of meat mixture into the center of the wrapper, dip finger into egg to spread it onto two adjoining edges of the wrapper and fold in half diagonally to seal it (will look like triangle).
• Press edges together and gently hold egg roll in hand and carefully squeeze out excess air as you are sealing.
• Deep fry until golden brown (for healthier method, steam/pan fry with less oil).
• Dipping sauce: Mix soy cause, red pepper and sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a seal-able container (I use a glass jar) and let sit for at least 4 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
• Store in refer for up to two weeks.
