Korean Kimchi Jeon Kimchi Pancakes Recipes

Steps:

• Stir together the kimchi, kimchi juice, flour, eggs, and green onion in a bowl.
• Heat vegetable oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Using about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake, pour into skillet, spreading as thin as possible. Cook pancakes until set and lightly browned, turning once, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Season to taste with salt.
• Whisk together the rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, chili pepper flakes, and toasted sesame seeds. Serve with the pancakes.

Steps:

• Make the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, combine ponzu sauce, sesame seeds and scallion. Set aside.
• Prepare the pancakes: In a large bowl, whisk together potato starch, flour, garlic powder, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
• Dice kimchi into 1/2-inch pieces. In a medium bowl, stir together kimchi and kimchi juice, scallions, gochujang, sugar, fish sauce and 1/2 cup water. Add kimchi mixture to flour mixture, and stir to combine.
• Set a 10-inch cast-iron pan over medium heat. When it's hot, add 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. When oil shimmers, add half the batter, and spread from the center out to the edges of the pan. After about 1 minute, once you sense the pancake is setting, use a thin metal spatula to make sure pancake is not sticking. When the bottom of the pancake is brown and the top fades from glossy to matte, after another 30 to 60 seconds, carefully flip the pancake using the metal spatula. (Alternatively, slide the pancake onto a rimless plate, and flip it back into the pan.) Continue cooking for another 60 to 90 seconds on second side until set, then carefully slide pancake onto a plate.
• Use remaining oil and batter to make a second pancake. Cut into wedges, and serve hot with dipping sauce.
