Ingredients
Main Ingredients (1 pancake (approx. 26cm diameter))
Seasonings
Steps
- In a bowl, add 200g frozen seafood mix and rinse by changing the water 2-3 times.
- Add Potato Starch as needed to the rinsed frozen seafood mix, knead well, then rinse quickly with water. [Key Tip!] Kneading with potato starch efficiently removes sliminess and odor.
- Tear and crush the prepared frozen seafood mix to help it meld with the batter. [Key Tip!] Tearing larger pieces will release more flavor.
- Thinly slice 1/2 medium onion.
- Roughly chop 2-3 stalks of chives into about 5cm lengths.
- In a separate bowl, combine 3 tbsp all-purpose flour, 3 tbsp potato starch, 1 large egg, and 1 tbsp Soy Sauce [A]. Mix the flour with the egg and soy sauce as you dissolve them. [Key Tip!] Dissolving the egg and soy sauce first makes it easier to mix the flour without lumps.
- Add the chopped onion, chives, and the prepared frozen seafood mix to the batter bowl and gently mix. [Key Tip!] Since the ingredients will release moisture, add water gradually. The key to a good pajeon is having more filling than batter.
- Observe the mixture and add 1-2 tbsp water if necessary, mixing until the batter coats all the ingredients. [Key Tip!] Be careful not to add too much water, or it will become mushy.
- Heat sesame oil as needed in a frying pan. Once hot, pour in the batter and spread it thinly and evenly. [Key Tip!] Unlike okonomiyaki, the key to pajeon is to press it down with a spatula while it's cooking.
- If any part of the pancake appears dry while cooking, add the remaining batter to fill in gaps and shape it.
- Cook one side until it's golden brown and crispy.
- Once the underside is thoroughly cooked, flip the pancake. [Key Tip!] If the shape breaks, you can reshape it by pressing and joining the parts back together.
- After flipping, drizzle more sesame oil as needed and pan-fry until golden brown, as if deep-frying. [Key Tip!] If using a gas stove, pressing down in the center while cooking will ensure even browning.
- Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate.
- In a small bowl, mix 1 tbsp Soy Sauce [B] and 1 tbsp Vinegar [B] for the dipping sauce. [Key Tip!] Adding garnishes like sesame seeds or chili flakes is also delicious.
- Garnish with shredded chili peppers as needed if desired, and serve.
