Kim Dae-seok's Spam Perilla Leaf Pancake

A delicious pancake that bursts with rich, fragrant flavor by wrapping spam in perilla leaves, coating it in tempura flour and egg mixture, then pan-frying it to golden perfection.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Since spam is very salty, do not add salt to the egg mixture—just use black pepper.
  • Keep a slight moisture on the perilla leaves so the tempura flour adheres well and prevents the leaf and spam from separating during cooking.
  • Soaking the spam in hot water removes off-flavors and excess grease, resulting in a cleaner, more delicate taste.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for kid-friendly side dishes or simple beer snacks for adults.
  • People who want to enjoy spam dishes in a more refined and less salty way.
  • Those wanting to create visually appealing pancakes with minimal ingredients.
