Salted caramel hotteok pancakes recipe
- 360 ml (12.7fl oz) whole milk
- 2 tbsp granulated white sugar
- 1 packet instant dry yeast
- 0.5 tsp sea salt
- 225 g (7.9oz) strong or bread flour, plus additional for dusting
- 150 g (5.3oz) sweet glutinous rice flour
- 4.5 tsp corn flour or corn starch
- 125 g (4.4oz) muscavado sugar
- 75 g (2.6oz) peanuts, roughly crushed
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 0.75 tsp sea salt
- For the dough: in a small saucepan, warm the milk up slightly and whisk in the sugar and yeast making sure they are dissolved completely.
- Let stand in a warm place to activate, about 3-5 minutes, or until bubbly.
- In a large bowl combine the salt and all three of the flours.
- Slowly pour in the warm milk and yeast mixture.
- Mix gently with a wooden spoon until a uniform, but slightly sticky dough forms.
- Shape into a ball and cover the bowl with a damp cloth.
- Let rise in a warm place, until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- Knock the dough down and let rise again until doubled in size, another 1 1/2 hours.
- For the filling: in a small bowl, mix together the muscovado sugar, peanuts, cinnamon, and salt.
- After the dough has risen the second time, dust a clean surface with flour and knock the dough out on to it.
- Dust the top of the dough with some more flour and it knead a couple of times.
- Shape the dough into a fat long log.
- Divide the dough into 10 even pieces and shape into balls (about 75 grams each).
- Cover with plastic wrap.
- Dusting with flour as necessary to prevent sticking, press a dough ball into a 4-inches/10 centimeters in diameter round disk using your fingertips.
- Place the disk in your hand and cup it slightly.
- Scoop in about 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of the sugar mixture into the center of the disk.
- Seal closed by pinching the edges together at the top wrapping the dough around the filling.
- Once sealed, reshape gently making a round ball.
- Set down with the seam side down on a well-floured surface.
- Cover with plastic wrap.
- Repeat forming pancakes with the remaining dough and filling.
- Place a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat and coat generously with oil, about 3 to 4 tablespoons.
- Working in batches of 3, place the pancakes seam side down on the frying pan and immediately flatten them gently with a spatula.
- Fry over medium to medium low heat for about 3-4 minutes each side, until dough is golden crispy brown and slightly springy to the touch.
- Transfer to a wire rack as done.
- Wipe your pan clean with a paper towel in between batches and use fresh oil with each batch.
- Let pancakes cool slightly before eating.
- Be careful not to burn yourself in your haste to gobble these up as the insides are hot and oozing.
