@madelinemehria: Mantuaholic (I ate the entire tray 🤤) 🇦🇫 #mantu #afghanfood #EasyRecipe #mealideas #homecooking Meat Filling - We use ground turkey as a lighter & healthier option, but beef or lamb is what’s traditionally used - Season with: ground coriander, cumin, cayenne, everyday spice blend, salt, pepper, and a little cornstarch Onion Base - LOTS of yellow onion - Sauté with garlic, salt, and pepper until soft and fragrant Combine - Mix the cooked ground turkey with the sautéed onion - Split the mixture in half: one half for filling the mantu, the other half for the sauce Tomato Sauce - Blend fresh tomatoes with canned whole tomatoes (plus some of the can’s sauce) - Add to the reserved meat and onion mixture - Cover and cook, then uncover and let it thicken to your desired consistency - Season with salt, red pepper flakes, and ground coriander Mantu Assembly - Use store-bought dumpling wrappers for convenience (the square ones) - Fill, fold, and seal with egg - Steam until cooked through Yogurt Sauce - Mix yogurt with garlic, salt, and dried mint Final Assembly - Layer: yogurt → mantu → tomato sauce → more yogurt - Top with dried mint, cayenne, and sliced jalapeño (not traditional, but adds a nice kick and texture)
