Ingredients- 1 can (150g) tuna
- 1/2 onion
- 1/3 carrot
- 1 Tbsp minced green onion
- 2 eggs
- 1 pinch of salt
- 2 Tbsp튀김가루 (fried batter mix) or 부침가루 (pancake mix)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the vegetables. Wash and peel half an onion and one-third of a carrot, then finely mince them. It’s important to mince them very finely so they don’t affect the texture. Add 1 tablespoon of minced green onion to the chopped vegetables.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the minced vegetables and crack in 2 eggs. Add 2 tablespoons of 튀김가루 (fried batter mix) or 부침가루 (pancake mix) to achieve the right batter consistency. Using 튀김가루 will result in a crispier texture, while 부침가루 will yield a softer pancake.
Step 3
Drain the tuna from the can, but don’t squeeze out all the oil – leave a moderate amount. Add the tuna to the bowl. Finally, add a pinch of salt to season.
Step 4
Now, stir all the ingredients together thoroughly until well combined. Use a chopstick or spatula to mix until you have a smooth batter with no clumps. You can adjust the amount of flour if the batter seems too wet or too dry.
Step 5
Heat a pan with a generous amount of cooking oil over medium-low heat. Spoon portions of the batter onto the hot pan and spread them thinly. Cooking on high heat can burn the outside while leaving the inside uncooked, so it’s crucial to cook slowly over medium-low heat.
Step 6
Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Gently press down with a spatula as you flip to shape them nicely. Your delicious tuna pancakes are ready to be enjoyed warm!
