Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, in a bowl, combine the minced beef and minced pork. Season with a little salt and black pepper and mix well by hand. Kneading the mixture thoroughly helps the seasonings penetrate, making it more flavorful.
Step 2
Finely mince the onion, green onion, and red bell pepper. Adding finely chopped vegetables enhances the texture and flavor of the Donggeurang-tteong. (Using a grater or food processor for mincing can be convenient!)
Step 3
To the seasoned meat mixture in the bowl, add the finely minced vegetables and 2 eggs. Pour in 1/4 cup of pancake mix. Mix everything thoroughly by hand until it becomes cohesive and sticky. If the mixture is too wet, add a little more pancake mix. Once it has a good sticky texture, shape it into small, flat, round patties, about bite-sized.
Step 4
Lightly coat the shaped Donggeurang-tteong patties with flour, then dip them evenly in beaten egg. This double coating helps the patties maintain their shape beautifully during cooking and results in a crispier texture.
Step 5
Heat a generous amount of oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Place the coated Donggeurang-tteong patties in the hot oil and cook until golden brown on both sides. Once both sides are a pleasing golden brown, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan for a moment, and cook until thoroughly done. Serve with the pre-mixed seasoning ingredients for dipping. Enjoy your delicious Donggeurang-tteong!
