Main Ingredients
- 50g fresh mugwort
- 2 sausages
- 2 fresh eggs
- 1 Cheongyang chili pepper (for a mild kick)
- 1 red chili pepper (for color)
- 4 Tbsp cooking oil
Seasoning
- 1 pinch fine salt
- 1 pinch fine salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by carefully cleaning the fresh mugwort under running water. Prepare the sausages and crack the eggs into a separate bowl. Wash the red and Cheongyang chili peppers, remove the seeds, and set them aside.
Step 2
Finely chop the cleaned mugwort. Dice the sausages into small, bite-sized pieces, similar in size to the chopped mugwort. Mince the Cheongyang chili pepper finely for a touch of heat. Slice the red chili pepper into thin rounds for a beautiful garnish.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the chopped mugwort, diced sausages, and minced Cheongyang chili pepper. Pour in the 2 cracked eggs and add a pinch of fine salt for seasoning. Mix everything gently with a spoon or spatula until well combined, forming a batter.
Step 4
Heat 4 tablespoons of cooking oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Ladle spoonfuls of the mugwort batter onto the hot pan, shaping them into round pancakes. Place the sliced red chili peppers decoratively on top of each pancake. Ensure the heat is medium to prevent burning.
Step 5
Once the bottom of the pancakes turns golden brown and crisp, carefully flip them using a spatula. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through. This ensures the inside is thoroughly cooked.
Step 6
Arrange the beautifully cooked mugwort and sausage pancakes on a serving plate. Enjoy them immediately while they are warm for the best texture and aroma.
