Ingredients- 2 Donggeurang-ttaeng patties (pre-made)
- 2 handfuls of fresh cabbage (approx. 2 cups)
- 4 slices of soft bread
- 2 Tbsp mayonnaise
- Generous amount of ketchup
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Shape the leftover Donggeurang-ttaeng dough into sandwich patty sizes. Wrap each patty individually with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator or freezer for easy use when needed.
Step 2
Place the Donggeurang-ttaeng patties on a preheated frying pan. Reduce the heat to medium and cook slowly. This ensures the patties cook through without burning on the outside.
Step 3
Flip the patties and cook until both sides are golden brown and look appetizing. Well-cooked patties offer a richer flavor.
Step 4
Prepare the cabbage for a crisp texture in your sandwich. Soak the shredded cabbage in cold water with a splash of vinegar for about 5 minutes. This helps to remove any impurities and makes the cabbage extra fresh.
Step 5
After soaking, rinse the cabbage thoroughly under running water to remove all traces of vinegar. Drain it completely. Roll the cabbage leaves tightly and shred them thinly. Thin shreds are easier to eat and blend well within the sandwich.
Step 6
Toast the bread slices for your sandwich. You can use a toaster or lightly grill them in a pan. A slightly crisp toast adds a wonderful texture to the sandwich.
Step 7
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise evenly on one side of the toasted bread. Mayonnaise helps to bind the ingredients and adds a creamy, savory note.
Step 8
Place the golden-brown Donggeurang-ttaeng patty on top of the mayonnaise-covered bread slice. This forms the hearty base of your sandwich.
Step 9
Generously pile the shredded cabbage on top of the patty. Don’t be shy with the cabbage; a good amount ensures a fresh and crunchy bite.
Step 10
Drizzle a liberal amount of ketchup over the cabbage, according to your preference. The sweet and tangy ketchup complements the other flavors perfectly.
Step 11
Finally, place the other slice of bread on top to complete your delicious Donggeurang-ttaeng Patty Cabbage Sandwich!
