This Man's Cook Perilla Chive Zucchini Pancake
Enhances the deep umami of dried shrimp and minimizes wheat flour batter to create thin, crispy zucchini pancakes with perilla chives
Ingredients needed 2 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Pre-salting the zucchini helps remove excess moisture, resulting in a firmer texture and allows the dried shrimp to absorb moisture, making them softer.
- Avoid over-mixing the batter, as vigorous stirring can bring out the raw smell from perilla chives—instead, gently toss as if brushing off dust.
- Use plenty of oil and cook over medium-low heat to prevent burning while ensuring the inside becomes crisp throughout.
Recommended for
- Those who want pancakes with no thick flour coating and where the natural texture of the ingredients shines through.
- People looking to add deep umami to ordinary vegetable pancakes using dried shrimp.
- Anyone wanting to successfully make a perfect crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside pancake on a rainy day.
