I like the addition of asparagus and sesame seeds. The only ingredient I try to avoid is tofu. Is there something else that can be substituted instead? I know a lot of mandu recipes use tofu but I can&#39;t get myself to eat it! The dipping sauce sounds nice as well! Hopefully I&#39;ll be able to try it out next time I make mandu.Katelynhttp://khelgemo.personal.asu.edu/wordpress/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408874920351031218.post-68811036580786644022008-10-01T13:30:00.000-07:002008-10-01T13:30:00.000-07:00These look beyond delicious.

Haven't taken a count - but it will be a generous portion to feed 4 to 6 adults depedning on how much you & your friends eat. <BR/><BR/>***IMPORTANT: if you decide to freeze the mandu ~ I suggest you do not use ground chicken. For some reason the ground chicken does not stay well when frozen & thawed. <BR/><BR/>To freeze them:<BR/>1. Make room in your freezer for cookie sheet(s)<BR/>2. Have cookie sheet(s) ready<BR/>3. Place freezer bag on cookie sheet - place mandu side by side but NOT touching or overlapping inside bag.<BR/>4. Repeat with another freezer bag and another cookie sheet. Place 2 or 3 sealed bags (depending on size of cookie sheet) in one layer, onto cookie sheet.<BR/>5. Freeze over night<BR/>6. When mandu is totally frozen, gently remove from cookie sheet, keep in freezer. You can stack the freezer bags on top of eachother just make sure the mandus are not touching each other.<BR/>7. To thaw: thaw in fridge overnight or on your kitchen counter for a bit before immediate use (let thaw in the bag with seal open)<BR/><BR/>I've never tried this freezing method, because there is usually none leftover....We end up cooking it all and might have a handfull in the fridge for leftovers the next day<BR/><BR/>crazy asians man....taste memoryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10788472489091750224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408874920351031218.post-75605078362909673572008-03-19T16:29:00.000-07:002008-03-19T16:29:00.000-07:00These look AMAZING... I'm ready to start NOW. ^o^<BR/>But I do have a question. About how many does this recipe make? And how do you freeze them? And can you post that soup recipe sometime...? ^_~<BR/>I am curious though because it seems like that makes A LOT... and I don't want to eat them all in one sitting! ^_^TMChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05152371205529748167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408874920351031218.post-71514495756976666592008-03-18T07:08:00.000-07:002008-03-18T07:08:00.000-07:00Thanks for commenting on my blog!
