Utilize your delicious leftover Donggeurangttaeng (Korean meatball pancake) and tofu pancakes from the holidays to create a wonderful sandwich, perfect as a snack for kids or a light meal. You can revive the delightful taste of special occasions, making your meal even more abundant.
Main Ingredients- 5 Donggeurangttaeng patties
- 2 slices of bread
- 1 Tofu pancake
- 2 Lettuce leaves
- 2-3 stalks of chives
- 1 Egg
- 1/4 apple (thinly sliced)
- 1 slice of cheddar cheese
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the leftover Donggeurangttaeng and tofu pancakes from the holiday. If you have other types of savory pancakes, they can also be used wonderfully.
Step 2
In a large bowl, place the Donggeurangttaeng and tofu pancake. Use a fork or a masher to finely mash them until there are no large lumps. Mashing them smoothly will help the sandwich filling bind well.
Step 3
Add the finely chopped chives and 1 egg to the mashed ingredients. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined. The fresh aroma of chives and the egg will make the filling even richer.
Step 4
Now, lightly oil a pan and heat it over medium-low heat. Spoon the mashed mixture and shape it into a round, flat patty that fits the size of your bread slices. Place these onto the heated pan to form the Donggeurangttaeng patties.
Step 5
Once one side is golden brown, gently press down with a spatula and flip it over. Cook until both sides are a delicious golden-brown color. It’s important to cook them through so they are warm inside.
Step 6
Prepare the bread slices according to your preference. You can toast them in a toaster for a crispy texture, or lightly butter them and toast them in a pan until golden brown for an even more savory flavor.
Step 7
Wash the lettuce leaves thoroughly and pat them dry. Peel the apple and slice it thinly. Slicing the apple thinly will improve the texture when you bite into the sandwich.
Step 8
On one slice of the prepared bread, neatly arrange the fresh lettuce leaves. Then, place the warm, freshly cooked Donggeurangttaeng patty on top of the lettuce.
Step 9
In a small bowl, mix ketchup and mayonnaise in a 1:1 ratio to create a delicious sauce. Spread this sauce evenly over the Donggeurangttaeng patty. The sweet and creamy flavors will harmonize wonderfully.
Step 10
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the sauce, followed by the thinly sliced apple arranged attractively. The apple’s crispness will cut through any richness.
Step 11
Finally, cover with the other slice of bread to complete the sandwich. To prevent the sandwich from falling apart, insert skewers or toothpicks through the center. Cut it into desired portions (usually in half) to serve.
Step 12
And there you have it! A wonderful and delicious Donggeurangttaeng sandwich made using leftover holiday food. Everyone loves this taste, so be sure to give it a try!
