    Korean Vegetable Pancakes is one of my favorite types of Korean pancake. We typically make these Korean pancakes in bulk during Korean Lunar New Years or Korean Thanksgiving (Chuseok).

    During these special holidays, my extended family meets at my grandma's house in the countryside. Typically, the women in the family (like to) sit together and make them. But my grandma shoos them away and puts me in charge. (I think she digs my recipe!) It's a win-win - as my aunts are not too fond of smelling like oil for the rest of the day 😆

    Korean vegetable pancake is all about cooking the fresh vegetables without losing too much taste or texture. With a dab of soy-sauce, these pancakes have the right balance of salty, lightness and fresh flavor. Try it out with your friends of family during a free weekend!

    Korean Vegetable Pancakes

    Korean Vegetable Pancakes is a delicious snack to make with friends or family. The secret is making a light batter and bringing out the natural taste of each vegetable.

    Notes

    • Avoid pressing down on the pancakes while it is cooking
    • Cooking time may vary  - check a few times for a crispy bottom
    • If you have access to Korean mart, buy the Korean pancake mix (tastes better than just flour)
    • Try it with the dipping marinade sauce

        So this is pan-fried (aka oily food), what about a salad on the side. Cucumber Kimchi Salad is a good one (https://futuredish.com/spicy-korean-cucumber-salad/)
