With the rising prices of flour and eggs, traditional ‘Bungeoppang’ (fish-shaped bread) has become more expensive. But don’t worry! You can easily make these delightful fish-shaped snacks at home using a simple hotcake mix. Today, we’re making ‘Pizza Bungeoppang’ – a savory twist on the classic treat. Enjoy this fun and flavorful snack!
Ingredients- 250g Hotcake mix
- 1 Egg
- 4 Tbsp Spaghetti sauce (adjust to taste)
- 4 Tbsp Mozzarella cheese (generous amount)
- 4 Tbsp Cooking oil (for greasing the mold)
- 150ml Water (to adjust batter consistency)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
A fish-shaped bread mold is essential for making these delightful treats! Once you have one, it’s incredibly useful for snacks throughout the year. Prepare the mold by lightly coating the inside with 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. This step is crucial to prevent the batter from sticking and ensure a beautiful golden-brown finish.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine the 250g of hotcake mix, 150ml of water, and 1 egg. Whisk everything together until smooth and lump-free. The batter should have a consistency similar to pancake batter – not too thick, not too thin. Preheat your fish-shaped bread mold over medium-low heat, lightly grease it with oil, and then pour in the batter, filling about two-thirds of each fish mold.
Step 3
Now for the star of the show – the pizza filling! Spoon about 1 tablespoon of spaghetti sauce onto the batter in each mold. Then, generously sprinkle 1 tablespoon of mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Don’t be shy with the cheese; it’s what makes these pizza bungeoppang extra special and delightfully stringy! Finally, carefully pour a little more batter over the filling to cover it partially.
Step 4
Close the lid of the fish-shaped bread mold. Now, cook over low heat, ensuring you flip it occasionally for even browning. It’s very important to maintain a low heat setting; high heat will burn the outside before the inside is cooked. Gently turn the mold to ensure both sides are cooked to a beautiful golden-brown color, bringing out the distinct fish shape.
Step 5
Voila! Your homemade pizza cheese bungeoppang is ready to be enjoyed! They’re crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, with that irresistible melted cheese and savory spaghetti sauce filling. Perfect as a winter snack or any time you crave a unique and delicious treat. Enjoy this delightful recipe!
