Flat dumpling are flat half moon shaped dumplings with glass noodle fillings. What is a flat dumpling (Nabjak mandu)? It's a popular snack food of Daegu, South Korea. What is the difference between a regular dumpling and a flat dumpling? A regular dumpling has more filling, but this flat dumpling is flat, in other words, you use less filling made with simple ingredients. But the taste is good - it is just as good as a regular dumpling. It's easy to make and tastes good!
For that reason, I think that I will make them more often. Especially, because my husband likes them. He likes to eat flat dumplings with red pepper paste seasoned cabbage. Spicy cabbage helps the greasy taste go away. The combination of spicy and greasy works well!
