Baek Jong-won's Kongjeon (Pan-fried Bean Pancakes)
A super simple kongjeon made by quickly cooking raw, unsoaked beans in a microwave and boiling water, then grinding them in a blender. It's as savory and light as bindaetteok.

Cooking tips
- It's best to use the most powerful blender you have at home that grinds evenly.
- Using minced pork with a moderate amount of fat, rather than just lean meat, will significantly enhance the savory flavor.
- If children are picky eaters, finely chop the green onions or other vegetables so they eat the kongjeon without realizing it contains beans.
- The beans themselves have no seasoning, so adding about half a tablespoon of salt is crucial for the flavor to come through when combined with the pancake mix.
Recommended for
- Those who want to quickly enjoy the taste of holiday bindaetteok at home without the soaking process.
- Those who want to deliciously feed their children protein-rich beans by stealth.
- Those looking for a savory, cost-effective side dish to pair with makgeolli or beer.
