The Richmond Community Kitchen, coincidentally, showed Korean BBQ beef for the session this week. The lesson today was led by Tanni Lee. I like Tanni because she is soooo cheerful and have a smile all the time for everyone.

Tanni made two separate dishes that complements each other. The Korean Style BBQ Beef goes very well with the dried shrimp pancake. For garnishing, she used kiwi fruit. She also used the kiwi fruit juice to marinate and tenderize the beef.

Korean Style BBQ Beef

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 lb Beef
  • 1.5 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoon kiwi juice
  • 1.5 tablespoon green onions
  • 2.5 tablespoon korean soya sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 1/2 tablespoon chopped ginger
  • 2 teaspoon dark soy
  • 1.5 tablespoon sesame oil
The marinate includes all the ingredients above.
We need to marinate for a at least 3 hours but preferably overnight.
Fry the marinated beef with a bit of cooking oil.
Frying process is very quick because the beef is thinly sliced.

Dried Shrimp Pancake

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cup flour
  • 1.5 tablespoon dried shrimp
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • 1 teaspoon green onion
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar
Stir all the ingredients together until you get a smooth batter. You then just pan fry them with a little oil at low heat.
The frying take just a little while. Do so until you get a nice golden brown.

Tanni, thanks for the time taken to show all of us this dish.

Korean Pancake

He who goes to bed hungry dreams of pancakes.

I prepared Korean Pancakes for a light dinner tonight. It is a batter with vegetables and meat. For meat, I used luncheon meat.

Pancakes are apparently popular in the Korean culture. There are many types but the one I prepared tonight is the vegetable pancake. The pancake mix costs about $2-$3. Other ingredients used are carrot, suey choy, cilantro and luncheon meat. You may substitude the luncheon meat with other meat like prawns, baby oysters, etc.

Here is how I prepare it:

I first grate the ingredients into small pieces.
I then mix the batter with same amount of water and the mix. I whisk the batter until it is not lumpy.
The chopped ingredients goes in at the same time — and mixed well.
I put a ladle of mixture into the pan — and pan fried each side for two minutes
I then turn the pancake over after two minutes to fry the other side.  I serve it in hoi-sin (seafood) sauce.

This is a quick and healthy meal. It just took me about 20 minutes to prepare the meal.
