Experience Mantu, the crown jewel of Afghan dumplings. These delicate parcels are filled with seasoned ground beef, chopped onions, and aromatic spices, then steamed to perfection. Topped with creamy yogurt sauce, a special mixed vegetable sauce, and fragrant dry mint, Mantu represents the sophisticated side of Afghan cuisine.
Mantu is considered one of the most refined dishes in Afghan cuisine, often reserved for special occasions and honored guests. At Afghan Chopan Kebab, we bring this culinary treasure to Edmonton, prepared with the same care and attention to detail as in Afghan homes.
Each Mantu dumpling is handcrafted with a thin, delicate wrapper encasing a flavorful filling of seasoned ground beef, finely chopped onions, and aromatic spices. The dumplings are carefully steamed until the wrappers are silky and the filling is perfectly cooked.
What elevates Mantu from simple dumplings to a culinary masterpiece is the layered topping. We drizzle each serving with cool, tangy yogurt sauce, followed by our special mixed vegetable sauce made with tomatoes, split peas, and spices. A generous sprinkle of dried mint adds the final aromatic touch.
"Excellent food, well worth the price. The portions are generous and served on a bed of fluffy flavoured rice. Our host, Mohammed, was generous and provided us with entertaining stories as well as a complimentary dessert. The value here is excellent!"
"Surprisingly Very Good! The tasty flavour ran right through the pieces of moist, succulent meat that was cooked perfectly. The amount of rice with this dish could have satisfied 3 people. Very Good Value."
"This is perhaps the best Afghan Chopan we have eaten in. Food is very delicious and servings are large. The owner is friendly and even brought us complimentary dishes. We ate there twice in two days!"
