3

Step 3

Then sift in the flour and mix well.

Step 4

Finally add the kimchi and a little sugar; if you don't like it too salty, you don't need to add salt, as the kimchi is salty enough.

5

Step 5

Mix evenly with a spatula, add water in batches according to the consistency of the batter; if you like it tender, add a little more water.

6

Step 6

Heat a flat pan over low heat, pour the stirred batter into the pan, and swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly over the bottom; do not pour too much batter at once, otherwise the surface will burn before the inside is cooked, so fry in batches.

Step 7

Flip and fry until both sides are golden brown, then remove from the pan; remember to keep the heat low throughout.
