My homemade 깻잎만두 — perilla leaves as the wrapper, no dough needed [Recipe inside]

Sharing my own 깻잎만두 (Perilla Leaf Dumpling) recipe! Instead of dough wrappers, I use perilla leaves – lighter,

more aromatic, and honestly more fun to make.

Recipe

1. Lightly steam the perilla leaves until just softened

2. Grind the filling: ground meat, tofu, garlic, and ginger

3. Season with: green onion, soy sauce, black pepper, oyster sauce, sugar, and sesame oil

4. Place a spoonful of filling onto a perilla leaf and roll tightly

5. Steam for 8–10 minutes
