Expert Tips
- Pay attention to the kneading process while preparing the manti dough. If the dough remains lumpy, you can continue kneading.
- Before adding the minced meat filling, cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
- It is also very important that the minced meat mixture is not watery. For this reason, you can leave it to rest in the refrigerator after preparing the filling.
- When you start rolling out the manti dough, you need to be fast. To prevent the dough from getting dry, it should be closed without waiting after the mixture is filled.
- You can add chicken or beef broth to the boiling water to increase the flavor.
- Do not cover the pot during the boiling process.
- How long does it take to cook manti? While instant manti cooks in 10 minutes on average, homemade manti takes 12–15 minutes.
