Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the mandu wrappers. Cut the wrappers into long, stick-like shapes. You can cut them into quarters, or slice them thinner if you prefer. Adjust the size according to your preference.
Step 2
Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a frying pan. Add the prepared mandu wrapper sticks and fry them until golden brown and crispy on both sides. The mandu wrappers puff up and fry very quickly once they hit the oil, so speed is key! Flip them quickly to avoid burning.
Step 3
The well-fried mandu wrappers will look a tempting golden brown and be very crispy. You can even enjoy these as they are, sprinkled with a little salt, for a simple and satisfying flavor. They are perfectly good to enjoy like basic crackers.
Step 4
Now, add 1 piece of butter (about the size of an ice cube) to the pan and melt it slowly over low heat. It’s important to melt the butter gently over low heat to prevent it from burning.
Step 5
Once the butter is completely melted and coats the pan, add the fried mandu wrapper sticks. Gently toss them to ensure they are evenly coated with the buttery goodness.
Step 6
Finally, sprinkle sugar evenly over the mandu wrappers according to your taste. Continue to stir constantly over low heat, ensuring the wrappers don’t burn and the sugar is well combined with the butter. Once coated and slightly caramelized, they are ready to serve! They taste best when eaten warm.
