Pancake Batter

Method

Pancake Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Whisk them together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then whisk in the water until fully blended.

  3. 3

    Make the Batter

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.

Filling Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Filling

    Add the chopped kimchi, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions to the pancake batter. Fold them in gently until evenly distributed.

Cooking the Pancakes

  1. 5

    Heat the Pan

    In a non-stick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until shimmering.

  2. 6

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour about 1/2 cup of the kimchi cheese batter into the skillet. Spread it out slightly to form a circle. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the edges start to set and the bottom is golden brown.

  3. 7

    Flip the Pancake

    Carefully flip the pancake using a spatula and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 8

    Repeat

    Remove the pancake from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as necessary.

Serving
