Yaki-Mandu (Korean Egg Roll)

Naturally Savvy Recipes

Keep the ground beef in the fridge until you are done preparing the rest of the ingredients.

Mix ingredients in large bowl (it's best to use your hands like preparing a meatloaf).

Scoop some of the mixture into a smaller bowl and keep the rest in the fridge until you are ready for it (wrapping is time consuming and you don't want the meat to be out any longer than it needs to be).

Mix a raw egg in a small bowl or cup, or use a small bowl of water.

Place a "sheet" of the egg roll wrap on work surface in front of you then spoon a teaspoonful of meat mixture into the center of the wrapper, dip finger into egg to spread it onto two adjoining edges of the wrapper and fold in half diagonally to seal it (will look like triangle).
