Pajeon (Korean Scallion and Seafood Pancake)

Ingredients

• 100 g of small green onions
• 50 g scallions
• 1/3 cup clam
• 1/2 cup oyster
• 1/2 cup of hard-shelled mussels
• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil

Ingredients A

• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1/2 cup rice flour
• 1 egg
• 2 cups water

Ingredients B

• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons vinegar
• 2 teaspoons red pepper powder
• 1 tablespoon of finely chopped green onion
• 1/2 tablespoon of minced garlic
• 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon sugar

Directions

1. 1

   Trim the small green onions and scallions and cut them into 4-inch lengths. Wash oysters, clams, and hard-shelled mussels in brine (5 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of salt) and drain on a wicker tray.

2. 2

   Slice oysters, clams, and hard-shelled mussels.

3. 3

   Beat "A" with a whisk into a light batter and mix half the chopped seafood in the batter. "A" can be bought pre-mixed in bags in Korean food stores (just ask them).

4. 4

   Place the green onions and scallions parallel in an oiled pan at a low heat and ladle a scoop of the batter onto them.

5. 5

   After the patty cooks slightly, sprinkle the sea food and spread a little bit of batter again on the top.

6. 6

   Turn the patty and fry until each side becomes appetizingly yellowish brown. Serve the pan-fried green onion and sea food with vinegar soy sauce mixed with "B".

7. 7

   You can make this recipe with chives instead of green onions, and omitting the seafood if you like. Try putting your favourite veggies in there.
