Baek Jong-won's Ttukbaegi Gyeranjjim

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Mince the salted shrimp finely so that the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the gyeranjjim, rather than clumping.
  • Use a ttukbaegi where the egg mixture fills about 70-80% of its volume to ensure it puffs up nicely.
  • For the lid, it's best to use another ttukbaegi of the same size flipped over or a convex lid to create enough internal space.
  • If heat control is difficult, reduce the heat to very low once the eggs start to clump to prevent burning.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make fluffy gyeranjjim at home, just like the one served at restaurants.
  • Those who enjoy egg dishes with the savory flavor of salted shrimp and the nutty taste of sesame oil.
  • Those who want to complete a wonderful Korean ttukbaegi side dish with basic ingredients they already have.
