Description

Delight in the crispy, cheesy goodness of Korean Cheese Pancakes. Made with grated potatoes and gooey mozzarella, these savory pancakes are a delicious snack or appetizer that can be customized with your favorite seasonings and served with kimchi or other condiments.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 250 g peeled potatoes
  • 50 g mozzarella cheese (shredded or cut into cubes)
  • 20 g brown sugar
  • 25 g cornstarch (or cornflour)
  • Cooking oil (for frying)
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Prep Potatoes: Peel and grate 250 g of potatoes. Squeeze out excess water and set the grated potatoes aside.
  • Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the grated potatoes, 20 g brown sugar, 25 g cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until a dough-like consistency forms.
  • Shape Dough: Divide the potato mixture into small portions. Flatten each portion into a small disc.
  • Add Cheese: Place a small amount of the 50 g shredded mozzarella in the center of each disc. Fold the edges over the cheese to seal it inside, forming a ball, and then flatten slightly into a pancake shape.
  • Cook: Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the pancakes until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Serve: Drain on paper towels and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use a non-stick skillet or griddle to prevent the pancake from sticking.
  • Ensure the skillet is properly heated before adding the pancakes.
  • You can experiment with different cheeses or add seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder for extra flavor.
  • Serve with kimchi or other condiments for an authentic touch.
