This Korean pancake recipe is super quick, easy and toddler friendly! Surprisingly, I feel like I have even less time since being in lockdown. Being stuck at home with a little one all day every day is HARD WORK! We are running out of ideas for lunch, and I definitely miss eating out. It’s crazy how much we rely on it!

Korean food is a favourite of ours, to be honest most asian cuisine is.

Here is a re-creation of a Korean style pancake, it is baby/toddler friendly and sort of mess free (no sticky, saucy hands everywhere). The hardest and most time consuming part is chopping up all of the ingredients, but if you have a mandoline handy it would save a lot of time. I recently purchased this OXO mandoline which is impressive, I love that it catches in its own container, and has 4 different grater styles.

Equipment

  • Large frying pan
  • Knife / Mandoline

Ingredients

  • 1 carrot
  • 2 potatoes
  • 1 cabbage or lettuce
  • 1/2 brown onion
  • 1 spring onion (finely chopped, separate green and white)
  • 2 slices bacon optional
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1 tsp pepper (or to taste)

Instructions

  • Chop all vegetables and meat into thin matchstick sizes, place in large bowl with the white part of the spring onion
  • Add the flour, water, salt and pepper and mix it all up with your hand
  • Using a large non-stick frying pan. Heat oil and lay the mixture out as thinly as possible. Let that cook on med-high heat until the bottom begins to brown
  • Once starting to brown, you have two options.                    
    1 – Crack 2 eggs on top and cover with a lid to cook (this will give you sunny side up eggs on top of the pancake). Leave it covered until eggs are as desired, I stop it whilst the yolk is still runny.                    
    2 – Flip the pancake and continue to cook until the other side is brown.
  • Voila! Put it on a plate and sprinkle the finely chopped green spring onion on top. Serve it with a dipping sauce (recipe in my blog, see link below). Enjoy!

Notes

This Korean pancake recipe can be made vegetarian friendly, just don’t add bacon.
