Quick kimchi pancakes
Yields 8 small pancakes
1 large egg
1 Tbsp. kimchi brine from jar
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
3/4 cup all-purpose or rice flour
1 1/2 cups kimchi, coarsely chopped
4 scallions, thinly sliced
4 Tbsp. neutral tasting oil (sunflower, vegetable, etc.) for frying
Whisk together egg, kimchi brine, soy sauce, and 1/4 cup water.
Add kimchi and half of the thinly sliced scallions to the batter, and reserve the rest for serving.
Heat 1 Tbsp. of oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat.
Working in batches, drop 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet. Cook pancakes until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer pancakes to a platter and top with scallions.
