Mantu | منتو

Mantu are Afghan steamed dumplings with a halal minced meat and onion filling. Afghan Hawasana serves the dumplings with a tomato-based sauce, creamy garlic yogurt and dried mint.

Ingredients and preparation

Thin, hand-rolled pastry encloses minced meat, finely diced onions and Afghan spices. The dumplings are gently steamed until soft, then layered with sauce and garlic yogurt, also called chaka. Their meat-filled centers distinguish Mantu from the menu’s leek-filled Aashak.
