Kimchi Pancakes

This savory Korean pancake recipe is made with spicy kimchi and is a flavorful appetizer or side dish.

I love making kimchi but it is Norbert who enjoys eating it more than I do. He loves spicy and sourish flavours. Instead of having kimchi as side dish, I prefer using kimchi in dishes such as kimchi noodle soup, kimchi tofu soup and kimchi pancake. Not only can you can have your dose of good probiotics from the kimchi, most people (including my carnivorous husband) does not mind those dishes are vegetarian.

Kimchi pancake (kimchijeon) is super easy and simple to make. As long as you have kimchi, you’re good to go. Oh ya, you also need flour, onion, salt and oil. But if you do cook, these are the must-have ingredients in your kitchen. Even if you’re not a kimchi fan, you would love kimchi pancake.

Have you tried making kimchi before? It sounds intimidating, but it is actually really easy. I promise. Just watch my Quick Cabbage Kimchi recipe video.
