Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Eggplant has high moisture content and will become soggy if cooked in advance, so it's best enjoyed immediately after cooking.
  • The key is to use as little batter as possible.
  • Use a generous amount of oil for the first batch so the eggplant absorbs it evenly and fries up crispy and nutty.
  • Adding garlic chives, gochugaru, and chili pepper as garnish to the dipping sauce enhances the flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to quickly and easily make a jeon when they don't have a suitable side dish.
  • Those who prefer a crispy outside and moist inside texture in vegetable jeon.
  • Those who want to enjoy a unique eggplant dish with a super simple dipping sauce.
