Mandu Jeongol - Korean Dumplings Hot Pot (Stew)

Korean Hot Pot with Dumplings - Mandu Jeongol

 

Let me show you one of the popular Korean cuisine called "Mandu Jeongol (만두전골 in Korean)". 

 

Mandu is a Korean word which means Korean dumplings and Jeongol means hot pot or stew. Therefore, Mandu Jeongol means Korean Hot Pot (Stew) with dumplings.

 

Dumplings are originated from China and a lot of other countries such as Korea, Japan and Indonesia have made their own style of dumplings. In Korea, mandu (Korean style dumplings) are differentiated by the ingredients inside. People in Korea enjoy mandu in various ways such as by boiling, steaming, frying or putting them into a stew.

 

Hot pot is a Korean traditional cuisine by putting and boiling the stew pot on the table. This is to keep the food warm while eating so the hot pot is normally served to guests or families on a special day.

 

Especially these days in Korea, there is a temperature difference between day and night time so many people find these types of food. As you know hot pot makes you warm when you feel a little bit chilly. Many people enjoy Mandu Jeongol when it is cold in winter or when they feel chilly. 

 

There are a lot of ingredients in Mandu Jeongol, such as mushrooms, green vegetables, meat (beef or pork), tofu and dumplings. As it is filled with various kinds of ingredients, it energizes you and makes you healthy.
