Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Use equal parts all-purpose flour and panko breadcrumbs, and keep the batter very thin like water—this prevents the flour taste from overpowering while preserving the natural fragrance and crispiness of the watercress.
  • Chopping the vegetables finely ensures they distribute evenly throughout the batter, preventing clumping and creating a balanced sweetness and spiciness when cooked.
  • Maintain medium-low heat while frying to avoid browning the watercress while achieving a crisp bottom.

Recommended for

  • Those who enjoy fragrant, savory, and crunchy vegetable pancakes.
  • People looking for the perfect simple makgeolli pairing recipe that’s ideal for rainy days.
