Ingredients

• 6 eggs
• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup water
• ¼ cup chopped green onions
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• ½ teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
• ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
• ½ teaspoon vinegar
• ½ teaspoon Korean red pepper powder
• 32 green onions
• 10 ounces frozen seafood mix, defrosted

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Trim ends from green onions and cut the roots off; wash 2 to 3 times in cold water and cut into 8 inches from white part. Drain green onions in a colander.

Step 2

Heat about 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place 1 green onion in 1 direction and 1 in the other direction, repeating until 8 are used for each serving batch.

Step 3

Mix flour, water, and salt together in a bowl until batter is smooth. Pour 1/4 of the batter over the green onions in the skillet; top with 1/4 of the seafood mix. Cook until seafood is cooked through and pancake is lightly browned on the bottom, about 10 minutes.

Step 4

Whisk eggs together in a bowl. Ladle 1/4 of the eggs over pancake; cook until mostly cooked, about 5 minutes. Flip pancake using 1 or 2 spatulas and cook for 10 minutes more. Repeat with remaining oil, green onions, batter, and egg.

Step 5

Whisk soy sauce, Korean red pepper powder, vinegar, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and black pepper together in a bowl; serve alongside pancakes for dipping.
