Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • After thawing, remove the shells and veins from the red shrimp and pat them thoroughly dry so the egg wash adheres well.
  • Without any flour or Korean pancake mix, coat only thinly with egg wash to highlight the shrimp's springy texture.
  • Gardenia water, made by steeping 2 gardenia pods in warm water until strong, is an optional ingredient for adding color, so mix it in a little at a time.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to serve colorful shrimp jeon for holidays or guests.
  • Those who want to simply prepare frozen red shrimp into springy jeon.
  • Those looking for a light jeon made with egg and chili pepper garnish instead of a flour coating.
