Ingredients

  • ½ pound well-fermented napa cabbage kimchi chopped into small pieces, plus 2 tablespoons of the brine
  • 3 scallions chopped
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup water
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Combine the kimchi, kimchi brine, scallions, sugar, flour, and water in a medium bowl and mix well with a spoon.
  • Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. (If you don’t have a 12-inch skillet, use a smaller skillet to make 2 pancakes.)
  • Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and spread it with the back of a spoon or a spatula to make a large circle.
  • Cook until the bottom is golden brown and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Carefully turn the pancake over. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons oil around the edges of the skillet, then lift the pancake with a thin spatula to allow the oil to run underneath and tilt the pan to spread it evenly.
  • Cook until the bottom of the pancake is light golden brown and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Flip it one more time and cook for another minute.
  • Slide onto a large serving platter and serve immediately.
