Pajeon, also known as Korean scallion pancake is something we love having during a Korean meal. In restaurants, you can get them with seafood or meat, however the simplest version is made with scallion / spring onions.
After some research, I decided to go with this recipe which is one of few which does not use egg. The pancake is made with a mixture of plain flour, water, sugar and doenjang, a Korean soybean paste (which I have replaced with miso paste as I have this at home).
Please ensure your spring onions are dry before adding to the hot oil, to avoid oil splatter. Cook until the pancake is golden brown and crisp and serve with a tangy, savoury dipping sauce. I've made this a few times now at home... Super simple recipe yielding great results.. love it!
Pajeon (Korean Scallion Pancake)
Recipe by Baby Sumo, adapted from here
Preparation time: 2 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Serves 2
Ingredients
6 stalks spring onions
1 1/2 tbsp cooking oil
1/2 cup plain flour
1/2 cup water
1 tsp miso paste
1/2 tsp caster sugar
For the dipping sauce
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp cooled, boiled water
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 stalk spring onion (green part only), finely chopped
1/2 tsp white sesame seeds
1. Trim the ends off the spring onions and wash. Drain and cut into 2" lengths. Ensure the spring onions are dried thoroughly before continuing.
2. Make the pancake batter. In a bowl, add the plain flour, water, miso paste and caster sugar. Mix well, until there are no lumps.
3. Mix all ingredients for dipping sauce in a small bowl and set aside.
4. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium high heat. Once oil is hot, add the spring onions and leave to cook for 30 seconds. Then pour the pancake batter in, and cook for about 4-5 minutes. You may use a spatula to lift and check if the bottom side is cooked and golden brown, before flipping over. Cook for another 3-4 minutes on other side.
5. Remove from heat. Using a pizza cutter, slice the pajeon into quarters or eighths. Serve with dipping sauce.
