When I first saw this recipe online, I was intrigued but hesitant to try it. I have the pickiest eaters and to make them eat veggies is hard work! I prep this one day because we have veggies on the counter that are just waiting to rot. When my kids saw the finished product, they dig in right away. To my surprise, they loved it! Serve these delicious Korean pancakes as a light snack, appetizer, or bring these to picnics.
Savoury Korean pancakes with potatoes and a mixture of vegetables made with love. Crunchy and super delicious. Enjoy these as is or with an Asian dipping sauce. This dish is the perfect clean-out of a fridge meal. Although this is made with all veggies, you can also add seafood or thin slices of beef if desired. Or for completely vegan pancakes, omit the egg and just add soy milk.
