Paraejeon is a popular Korean pancake made with seaweed. It’s a simple yet delicious dish that’s perfect for a quick snack or side dish.

Ingredients:

Dried seaweed
Flour
Water
Salt
Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:

Prepare the seaweed: Soak the dried seaweed in water until it becomes soft and pliable. Rinse it thoroughly to remove any impurities.
Make the batter: Mix flour, water, and salt to form a batter.
Combine seaweed and batter: Add the seaweed to the batter and mix well.
Fry the pancakes: Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Pour the batter onto the pan and fry until golden brown on both sides.
Serve: Serve the pancakes hot with a dipping sauce, such as soy sauce mixed with vinegar and chili peppers.

Tips:

Freshness: Use fresh, high-quality seaweed for the best flavor.
Batter consistency: The batter should be thick enough to coat the seaweed but thin enough to pour easily.
Oil temperature: The oil should be hot enough to fry the pancakes quickly, but not too hot to burn them.
