Ingredients
- 1 pack King Oyster Mushrooms
- 5 imitation crab sticks (surimi)
- 1/4 Red Bell Pepper
- 1/4 Yellow Bell Pepper
- 1/4 Green Bell Pepper
- 1/4 Onion
- 3 Eggs
- 3 pinches Salt (approx. 0.3g)
- 2 pinches Black Pepper (approx. 0.1g)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the red and yellow bell peppers, green bell pepper, and onion thoroughly, then pat them dry. Finely mince all the vegetables. Feel free to use any other vegetables you have in your refrigerator. Utilizing leftover vegetables is a great way to reduce waste and add extra flavor.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, add the king oyster mushrooms. You can either roughly chop them or shred them with your hands. Add the minced vegetables and the 3 eggs to the bowl. Sprinkle in 3 pinches of salt and 2 pinches of black pepper to season.
Step 3
Mix the ingredients thoroughly with a spatula or spoon until well combined. Ensure the vegetables, mushrooms, and eggs are evenly distributed to create a cohesive batter.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Spoon portions of the batter onto the hot pan, using two spoons to help shape them into small, round pancakes. Aim for bite-sized portions for easy handling and serving.
Step 5
Once the bottom of the pancakes is golden brown and set, carefully flip them over using two spoons. Since this recipe doesn’t use flour, the batter is softer and requires a gentle touch when flipping to prevent them from breaking. Cook until golden brown on both sides.
Step 6
Your Crab Stick and King Oyster Mushroom Pancakes are now ready! These savory pancakes, packed with the flavors of crab stick, king oyster mushrooms, and various vegetables, are delicious on their own. They are especially delightful when dipped in a simple sauce made with soy sauce and a touch of vinegar. Enjoy the warm, savory, and satisfying taste of these homemade pancakes. They are perfect for a light meal, a side dish, or a delightful snack!
