My mom’s shrimp pancake was something I always looked forward to at any party, family gatherings or celebrations. It’s such a simple dish, but because it was served only on special occasions, it always seemed so fancy. As a kid, I would load up my plate before they ran out, and now I know I can make them for myself. This dish isn’t the most traditional Korean recipe, but it has Korean elements to it, like frying batter to make a pancake and adding green onions. Enjoy!

This crispy shrimp pancake adapts aspects of Korean cooking for American tastebuds.
