Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the chopped kimchi, kimchi juice, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and water.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the kimchi is well-drained before chopping to prevent a soggy batter.
- 2
Mix all ingredients thoroughly until a smooth, thick batter forms. Stir in the sliced green onion.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- 3
Prepare the dipping sauce by combining the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and toasted sesame seeds in a small bowl. Set aside.
Aproximativ 1 min.

Heat a large non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Use enough oil to ensure a crispy pancake.

Pour about a quarter of the batter into the hot pan, spreading it evenly with the back of a spoon to form a round pancake about 1/2 inch thick.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Adjust the size of the pancake based on your pan and preference.
- 6
Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Add more vegetable oil around the edges as needed during cooking to enhance crispiness.
Aproximativ 8 min.
Nota bucătarului: The key to a good kimchijeon is a crispy exterior.

Remove the cooked pancake from the pan and place it on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Aproximativ 1 min.

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more vegetable oil to the pan before each new pancake.
