Recipe
Cooking tips
- Soaking minced dried shrimp in water and cooking wine for 5 minutes removes any fishy odor and significantly improves texture.
- Avoid pressing or over-mixing the lettuce into the batter, as this can crush it, release bitterness, and dull its crunch.
- Adding potato starch to the pancake flour enhances the crispiness of the final result.
- Use plenty of oil and cook over medium heat to trap the lettuce’s moisture and maintain crispness for longer.
Recommended for
- Those who want to creatively and deliciously use up leftover lettuce after eating meat.
- People looking for pancakes with an intense crisp exterior and a juicy, savory interior.
- Anyone wanting a light, satisfying late-night snack or a rich, savory side dish to pair with soju.
