Scallion Pancakes (Chijimi) with spicy dipping sauce

  1. Make your dipping sauce by mixing grated garlic, spicy bean paste, soy sauce, sugar, miso, and sesame oil.
  2. Add sesame seeds to sauce if you wish.
  3. Cut scallions/chives into 2-3 cm pieces.
  4. In a mixing bowl, add 200g flour, 1 egg, 1/2 tsp salt and 600 ml water.
  5. Whisk until well mixed.
  6. The batter should end up pretty runny.
  7. Add katsuo-bushi/bonito flakes to the bowl if you have them.
  8. Stir scallions/chives into batter.
  9. Mix batter well.
  10. Heat half oil for frying on medium high heat in a big frying pan.
  11. Pour in half the batter and fry until bottom starts to brown.
  12. Flip to other side and continue frying until browned.
  13. Remove pancake and cook the rest of the batter the same way.
  14. Cut into easy to serve slices and serve with dipping sauce.
  15. If you make it, upload your photo - I'd love to see your version!
  16. *For a simpler sauce, mix 1 clove grated garlic, 4 tsp ground sesame seeds, 4 tsp sesame oil, and 4 Tbsp soy sauce.
  17. This goes well with mayonnaise :)
