Kimchi Jeon(김치전)

Apparently I am pretty bad at the 'everyday' thing. But, I do promise to post often enough(so vague, yes?).

That aside, a brief snack post.

Take 1 c. all-purpose flour, 1/3 c. rice flour(optional), 1 c. water, a dash of garlic powder, an even tinier dash of salt, and roughly 1/2 c. of chopped kimchi(and any other veggie that might appeal) and mix them all together in a bowl.

From there put a large frying pan on the stove at medium heat and either spray some cooking oil over it or coat with a thin layer of vegetable oil.

Once hot enough that a small drop of the batter sizzles on it, pour about a third of the batter onto the pan and use a fork or spoon to spread it out thin(though not enough for holes!). Resist the urge to flip it until at least half of the side you see is no longer very batter-like(partially cooked).

Flip and press, flip and press, and once it starts to look a bit brown on both sides, move it to a plate, cut it up into bite-sized pieces, repeat the same with the rest of the batter, and serve with your dipping sauce of choice(ex. pictured: minced garlic with Korean soy sauce)!

Quite tasty and spicy, though not for those who don't already have a fondness for kimchi. ;p
