Chive Pancakes (Buchujeon)

Directions

1. 1
   Clean chives and cut into 2 inch long pieces.
2. 2
   Make batter by mixing flour, water, egg, salt and sugar. Whisk well until batter is smooth.
3. 3
   In a mixing bowl, add chives and then pour batter but do it in gradual amounts to make sure you don't have too much batter.
4. 4
   Heat frying pan on medium high heat. Add 2 tsp of vegetable oil for a 10 inch pan.
5. 5
   When oil moves around freely like water, when swirled, pour chive pancake mixture and spread it out with spatula on pan. A mistake you can make here is to make the pancake too thick.
6. 6
   Cook for about 2 min or until about 70% of surface looks cooked.Turn it over and add another 1~2 tsp vegetable oil around the edges of the pan. Cook for another 2 min or so until nicely browned.
7. 7
   While pancake is cooking, make a simple Dipping Soy Sauce and serve either with some sesame seeds or chopped green onions or chive flowers like I did here!
8. 8
   Transfer pancake onto a cutting board and cut into squares or diamonds. You can also just serve it whole and allow people to just cut it at the table.
