Mantoo
Mantoo is a popular Afghan dumpling dish filled with seasoned ground meat, onions, and herbs. It is typically served with a yogurt-based sauce and topped with a sprinkle of spices.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef or lamb
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 package round dumpling wrappers

- Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the ground meat, chopped onion, garlic, coriander, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Place a small amount of the meat mixture in the center of a dumpling wrapper and fold the edges over to create a dumpling shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
