A pancake for dinner is a good idea as long as it's a cool pancake. For more Chef Buck video recipes click here http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2EFBD7E8FE2BB552&feature
SEAFOOD PANCAKE
ingredients:
6 oz SEAFOOD (shrimp, scallops, squid, etc.)
5-6 GREEN ONIONS (cut into 1" lengths)
1 tsp HOT PEPPER (finely chopped)
½ cup ALL PURPOSE FLOUR
½ cup cold WATER
1 EGG (beaten)
2-3 Tbsp cooking OIL
sauce:
2 Tbsp SOY SAUCE
1 Tbsp RICE VINEGAR
1 tsp SESAME SEEDS
--optional1 tsp HOT SAUCE (chili garlic, pepper sauce, etc.)
directions:
Mix sauce ingredients in a small dish and set aside.
Cut GREEN ONIONS in half and then lengthwise, then cut into 1" pieces. Finely chop 1 tsp of HOT RED PEPPER—a hot green pepper will do—but a red pepper makes the dish look yummier (also, add a little red bell pepper for color, if desired.)
Chop SEAFOOD (seafood is ideal for this dish because it cooks quickly—use shrimp, squid, scallops, clams, etc.)
In a bowl, mix ½ cup ALL PURPOSE FLOUR with ½ cup COLD WATER. Mix well until a thin batter is formed (add a drop more water if needed—the batter should be thin enough to coat the veggies and seafood thoroughly and spread evenly when poured into the skillet)
Add onions, peppers, and seafood to the batter and mix well.
Heat a skillet on MEDIUM HIGH heat and add OIL. When oil is heated, add batter and spread evenly. Cook for 4-6 minutes until the edges of the cake begin to brown—but before the edges brown, add 1 well-beaten egg to the top of the cake (tip: shake the skillet to spread the egg evenly over the cake). When the cake has cooked to a light brown on one side, turn and cook approx. 2 minutes on the other side (it won't take long—be mindful to not burn the egg, but a light crispness makes this dish delicious)
Remove and serve immediately with the dipping sauce.
Bon appétit!

Ran out and did it today, Yum! The ONLY thing I changed is that I mixed the egg up first in the batter, seemed easier and worked out well. Thanks Chef for your post

Thanks...and the egg in the batter is a real good alternative...I like frying the egg on the outside cause it's a different taste and texture, but for some folks, the last thing they want to see is a random egg stuck to the outside of their dinner (even if it is delicious!)

Just made this using your recipe and it was perfect! Added salt and pepper to batter but everything else was just the recipe. Great post!

that's great...thanks for watching and giving it a try...I've experimented with this dish a half dozen different ways and this combo has given me the best results, and it's the only way I make it now, although I do play around with the dipping sauce a little (lately I've been adding a smidge of tahini)

you should add some leek. as a korean, and having this many times, leek is a must have in this "pancake".

I love leeks--but as many times as I've made this, I've never used leek--I always have soooo many green onions in the fridge, I can barely stay ahead of them--I'm definitely gonna have to get control of my life back from the green onions.
