Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, trim the tough base from the oyster mushrooms. This ensures a more tender texture.
Step 2
Gently tear the prepared oyster mushrooms into bite-sized pieces along their natural grain. Avoid tearing them too finely, as this can reduce the chewy texture. Aim for pieces about 2-3 cm long.
Step 3
Thinly slice half an onion. Adding this to the mushroom mixture will enhance the sweetness and overall flavor.
Step 4
In a large bowl, combine the torn oyster mushrooms and the thinly sliced onion. Add 1 tablespoon of minced garlic.
Step 5
Next, add 4 tablespoons of chopped green onion and 4 tablespoons of pancake mix to the bowl. Mix gently to combine the ingredients.
Step 6
Season with approximately 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Then, crack in 2 eggs.
Step 7
Using chopsticks or a spatula, mix everything together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes tough. Just mix until no dry flour is visible.
Step 8
Now, let’s make the special soy sauce dip that will elevate your oyster mushroom pancakes. In a small bowl, add 3 tablespoons of water.
Step 9
Follow with 3 tablespoons of soy sauce. This soy sauce base is key to a delicious dipping sauce.
Step 10
Add 1/2 tablespoon of sugar for a touch of sweetness, and 1 tablespoon of vinegar for a refreshing tang.
Step 11
For added depth of flavor, stir in about 1 tablespoon of finely chopped onion. The onion’s natural sweetness complements the sauce beautifully.
Step 12
Finally, add 1 finely chopped Korean chili pepper and 1 finely chopped red chili pepper for a fresh kick and vibrant color. Feel free to adjust the amount according to your spice preference.
Step 13
Stir the soy sauce dip ingredients well with a spoon until the sugar is dissolved. Your flavorful dipping sauce is now ready!
Step 14
Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Spoon portions of the batter into the hot pan, forming round, flat pancakes. Aim for a slightly thicker pancake to prevent it from breaking apart.
Step 15
Once one side is golden brown and cooked, flip the pancake and cook the other side until evenly browned. Adjust the heat as needed to ensure the pancakes cook through without burning.
Step 16
Arrange the beautifully golden-brown oyster mushroom pancakes on a plate. Serve them with the special soy sauce dip you prepared earlier for an even more delightful experience.
Step 17
