Step 1
Bring broth to a boil in a large pot over medium-high heat, about 4 minutes.
Step 2
Add garlic, soy sauce, gochugaru, and sesame oil. Stir and let it bubble for 30 seconds.
Step 3
Drop frozen mandu into the pot without thawing. Stir gently so they don't stick to the bottom.
Step 4
Add mushrooms and napa cabbage. Return to a gentle simmer and cook for 8 minutes until dumplings float and cabbage is tender.
Step 5
Taste the broth and adjust salt or heat with more gochugaru if needed.
Step 6
Ladle into bowls and serve hot with extra sesame oil and fresh scallions if you have them.
