Korean Jeon are delightful savory pancakes that can be made with a variety of ingredients, such as vegetables, seafood, or meat. Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, they make for a perfect appetizer or side dish.

Ingredients

    Directions

    Step 1

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, water, and salt. Whisk until smooth to create a batter.

    Step 2

    Stir in the chopped green onion, grated zucchini, grated carrot, and egg into the batter. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated.

    Step 3

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.

    Step 4

    Once the oil is hot, ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet. Spread it into a circle about 1/4 inch thick.

    Step 5

    Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the edges are golden brown, then carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side.

    Step 6

    Transfer the cooked jeon to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil as needed.

    Step 7

    Serve the Korean Jeon warm with soy sauce for dipping.
