Description

A savory, crispy pancake loaded with finely shredded cabbage, green onions, and seasonings—pan-fried to golden perfection. A simple, delicious way to enjoy cabbage.


Ingredients

4 cups finely shredded cabbage

2 scallions, thinly sliced

2 large eggs

¼ cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon sesame oil

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, for frying

Optional toppings: sesame seeds, chopped herbs, hot sauce, soy dipping sauce


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, scallions, eggs, flour, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until cabbage is well-coated.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  3. Pour half the cabbage mixture into skillet and press into an even layer. Cook for 4–5 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook another 4–5 minutes until crisp.
  4. Repeat with remaining oil and cabbage mixture.
  5. Transfer pancakes to a cutting board, slice into wedges, and serve hot with dipping sauce.

Notes

Add chili flakes or chopped chili for heat.

Mix in shredded cheese for a rich twist.

Grated ginger and hoisin or sriracha give it an Asian flair.

Try shrimp or crab meat for a seafood version.

Use flax eggs for a vegan alternative.
