Annyeong! I bring the recipe which is
good for a rainy day it's very sunny
outside though. Koreans say if it rains
then 'Oh this is perfect day to have some
전(jeon)' or 'Oh I crave for 전(jeon) today'
전(jeon) means 'Korean pancake'
it could be weird
because commonly pancake is always sweet, but Korean pancake is not sweet at all.
So it could cause some confusion because of the translation
Actually I prefer to be
called 전(jeon) instead of 'Korean pancake'
I hope전(jeon) become a proper noun
like kimchi or bibimbap.
Just my personal hope...
Anyway I'm going to make 해물부추전(haemulbuchujeon)
seafood pancake and dipping
sauce and I'm going to use Korean chive
but you can use green onion as well
it's easy recipe but you can feel the harmony
of vegetables and seafood
so let's set the table
You will need 3 oz. of Korean chives,
seafood like squid and shrimp
you can also use like clam or mussel
and then
half of carrot, red pepper,
1 cup of Korean pancake powder, 1 cup of water and
an egg
and for dipping sauce
you will need 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp vinegar 1/2 tbsp water,
onions, green pepper and red chili pepper powder are optional
I'm
going to prepare ingredients first
cut the Korean chives into 2-inch(5cm) and slice the carrot and
cut shrimp into small pieces if you have
more seafood like clam or mussel then
cut those into small pieces together
I have pre-prepared squid.
Lay it on a cutting board and pull the body and the
tentacles apart
and I'm going to remove the skin of body
with paper towel hold the edge and peel this
Once squid is prepared, slice the body thinly into
1-inch (3cm) long pieces
and cut the tentacles into 1-inch (3cm)
long pieces
This is squid's mouth.
'Hi guys'
Sorry but remove this
Next I'm going to make dipping sauce
Put 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp vinegar,
1/2 tbsp water and red pepper powder in
a bowl and cut onion and pepper into
pieces
and mix them well
In a bowl combine a cup of Korean pancake powder
and a cup of cold water
if you have an ice, then put them in.
It makes pancake more crunchy
Whisk them till a batter forms.
and then remove moisture of ingredients
and put them on it and mix well
In another small bowl beat an egg well like this
you don't have to make bubble
OK. preparation is over and we are ready to make Korean pancake
In a non-stick pan turn on the medium high heat first and
then heat oil on it
next put batter into pan and spread well
and put red pepper for garnish.
When it's cooked about half way
pour the beaten egg on the top
when
the bottom turns to brown
turn the pancake over carefully
pan-fry both sides until it's crispy and
golden brown
Can you hear this sound?
it makes me hungry
Okay it's done and time to eat
You can cut this into bite-sized pieces
but you know what?
the best way to enjoy Korean pancake is tear this with chopstick
The texture of the seafood, especially
the squid is really nice chewy and juicy
and then the side part of the
pancake is my favorite
it's crispy (바삭바삭)
Actually 'Makgeolli(막걸리)' Korean raw rice wine is best combination with Korean pancake
but it's middle of the day, so I prepared the milk
just for the vibe
because milk and Korean raw rice wine are same color. White
it's weird
just get 'Makgeolli(막걸리) or or 'Soju(소주)'
So today we make Korean seafood pancake
