Eat like oppa/noona - Kimchi Pancake

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

WHAT DO WE NEED (for 2)

• 150 g of pork - cut in cube (optional)


• 3 spring onions finely chopped


• 4 shiso leaves finely chopped*


• 1 chili pepper finely chopped (optional)


• 1 garlic clove finely chopped


• 62 g of rice flour


• 125 g of all-purpose flour


• 1 egg


• 4 tbs of kimchi


• salt


• Cooking oil


• 175 ml of water

* not essential to the recipe, if you don’t find any it’s ok ^^


HOW TO:

Mix the all-purpose flour and rice flour, water and egg in a bowl until the mixture becomes creamy.
Add the Kimchi, spring onions, shiso leaves, chilli pepper, garlic and salt to the mixture and mix well.

Heat 1 tbs of cooking oil in a large frying pan over high heat.
Pour a ladleful of the mixture into the pan.
When the edges of the pancake begins to color and the dough becomes less liquid (3 to 4 minutes), turn the pancake and cook the other side.
Repeat with the remaining dough by adding more oil if necessary.

Serve hot with grated lemon zest, kimchi and salad.


OP’s note :
I’m not a huge fan of this recipe.
I went for a veggy version but if I was to do it again I would definitely add pork and I would only use regular flour as I do not like the texture given by the rice flour.
But it’s really up to you and how you like it ^^

Ah is pork necessary or can we add beef or chicken instead? :/

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

You can go with beef or chicken
Most recipe involve pork because it's cheaper

I didn't use any meat when I cooked mine but I should have tbh

[wafflesnmilk.livejournal.com]

Not OP but I find that seafood actually goes better with these sort of pancakes but the pork is definitely replaceable or even omitting all the meats for that matter :)

I cheat and use the pa jun instant mix :x

[fantaesticbaby.livejournal.com]

personally i don't really like the sound of kimchi pancakes...

The only thing I like eating kimchi with is pringles or as a side dish with other korean food.

That said, my flatmate is planning to make kimchi-yaki... (as in, tacoyaki but with kimchi instead of taco) and i'm not sure whether to be excited or afraid.

TOKOYAKI IN MY HEART


I'd be scared

No ice cream?

[yakuniku-8.livejournal.com]

first I was rejected and after I visted my grandpa who doesn't have internet :( but it's coming soon. I may do a post about the Festival of Cannes too.

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

The festival post sounds interesting
Why was your post rejected?

[yakuniku-8.livejournal.com]

because I didn't title the sources and because I didn't put a video under a cut.

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

Oh, then next time it'll be accepted no doubt ^^

[yakuniku-8.livejournal.com]

thankyou!

Can I use this pancake batter recipe for scallion pancake too?
If not, OP Im requesting a scallion pancake recipe with sauce! XD

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

Ooooooh that sounds good I'll try to make it soon
what kind of sauce do you want?
Does a ginger dipping sauce sounds good?

[shini-tc.livejournal.com]

Yay... I cant wait to see what recipe you find works best.
Yea, ginger sauce sounds good.
Maybe you can do a variety of sauces so we can pick choose and refuse XD

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

XD
I had a post planned for next time, so I might only do this in 2 weeks, I hope it's ok

I can't hear about kimchi pancakes without thinking of that woman who made it for every meal for her family for *years* -- they were on Hello Counselor when SHINee was guesting: http://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com/10861687.html

[hearttaek.livejournal.com]

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

[the-erotomanic.livejournal.com]

i'm going to try your recipe. hopefully it'll look more like a pancake instead of a mess. hehe!

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

Practice makes perfect ^^

[hitsujiga.livejournal.com]

omnomnom :Q_____________ i love pancakes, so this is like...heavenheavenheavenheaven~

[chibi-rei.livejournal.com]

Nice! I was gonna look up a recipe. I wanted to make a YouTube video later in the week. I'll have to use this recipe :)

Also pork is an interesting choice. I don't recall ever having meat when I ate it in Korea -- not that is wasn't necessarily there, but I just don't remember.
