Korean pork and kimchi dumplings (mandu)
Korean dumplings, or mandu, may be boiled, steamed, pan-fried or deep fried just like jiaozi, its Chinese ancestor, and gyoza, its Japanese sibling. When cooked and served in broth, it's called mandu-guk.
Recipes with pork
Pork bulgogi rice bowl
Pork seasoned with soy sauce, ginger, shallot, garlic, mirin, sugar and gochujang is pan fried and served with blanched broccoli over rice.
Chinese steamed pork buns (baozi)
If you feel that the steamed pork buns from the neighborhood Chinese place could be better, that the bread is not fluffy enough and there isn’t sufficient meat filling, perhaps it’s time that you try making this dim sum favorite at home.
Mexican-style meatball (albondigas) soup
Lightly browned meatballs and vegetables are simmered in homecooked tomato soup. A lovely one-pot dish to enjoy on cold days and nights. Don't forget to serve bread on the side to mop up that lovely broth that's almost as thick as a sauce.
Ham and sausage fried rice
Salty Chinese ham joins sweet Japanese sausage in this bright and festive fried rice. A wonderful one bowl meal!
