Korean Vegetable Pancake, a delicious and easy to make pancake with lots of veggies. It's one of our family favorites so i used to make this often and we love to have it as breakfast or as snacks in the evenings.
Toddler in our house is a huge fan of this pancake.That's main reason for frequent making of this pancakes.
These pancakes are so good on their own and don't need any side dish. However, for adults, any spicy sauces(like sriracha ) would be a great dip for these pancakes.
Vegetables
For this pancake, i highly recommend to use cabbage, mushrooms,capsicum, sweet potatoes and spring onions without fail.
Cabbage is the key for this pancakes. For the total 3 cups of vegetables, i use 1 to 1 & 1/4 cups of cabbage alone. It gives a nice texture to the pancakes.
Sweet potato gives mild sweetness that makes these pancakes so delicious.
Capsicum and spring onions are mainly for the flavor. Without these, the pancakes would be less flavorful and taste so different.
Mushrooms are for umami flavor . My favorite is brown mushrooms compared to white mushrooms because of its intense flavor.
Flour
For this recipe, you can use mix of all purpose and atta flour and it tastes equally good as made with the all purpose flour alone. However, don't increase the amount of flour. The whole purpose of using flour in this recipe is to hold the vegetables together. So add as needed only.
Ok, now let's check out how to make these delicious Korean style vegetable pancakes.
