Baked manty
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. This simple recipe for mantu in the oven won me over at the time thanks to the special crispy crust that remains, even though we add broth later. If you love fried dumplings, you'll understand what I mean! But by the way, if you truly enjoy dry and crispy dough crust, I suggest slightly modifying this oven-baked mantu recipe—simply skip adding the broth and periodically flip the mantu in the oven. Good luck! The finished dish is ready to serve.
