Kimchi Pancakes
it makes me really happy when I find out someone tried out a recipe to share with family. Someone wrote on one of the comments that her son loves kimchi pancakes, and requested me to do a video. so I jumped on it because this is something so easy to make!
well, so easy if you have the korean pancake mixes- buchim mix and tempura mix in a 1:1 ratio, with just water.
but what if you didn’t?
Here’s the recipe with measurements you can try without the Asian-supermarket specific mixes :) enjoy.
Ingredients
5 Tbsp flour
1.5 Tbsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup water
Salt , pepper
3 chopstick-fulls of kimchi , or to your liking
Scallions, optional but delicious if added
Shrimp, optional
1. Mix 5 Tbsp flour, 1.5 Tbsp cornstarch, 1/2 tsp baking powder with 1/2 cup water.
2. Mix in the Kimchi, scallion, and shrimp. Season to taste.
3. Heat your pan with copious amounts of oil.
4. Place batter in the middle, then spread it thin to all corners with a spoon.
5. Fill in any holes with small spoonfuls of batter
6. Wait 10 minutes on low heat. Check if you can move the pancake pretty easily on the pan before flipping. The top surface should be pretty much cooked.
7. Flip and cook another 5-6 min on low heat. If the pan is dry, add some oil. This is important to making crispy and thin kimchi pancakes without burning it!
Here’s the tiktok video I did !
Didn’t know I could pull these up on my website! !
