I am not much fond of Korean food since I was never really into weird-tasting dishes. However, this recipe has that kick that will make it perfect as a viand or even as a snack.

I recently got this Shrimp And Scallion Pancakes recipe from Epicurious.

Ingredients: (serves 2)

2 garlic cloves, minced

3/4 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup water

2 eggs, beaten

1 tablespoon sesame oil

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 bunch scallions, green parts thinly sliced, white parts discarded

1/2 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and thinly sliced

1/2 pound medium shrimp, peeled and halved lengthwise

1/4 canola oil

Procedure:

* Whisk together the garlic, salt, water, eggs, and sesame oil in a large bowl. Add the flour, and whisk until it forms a smooth batter. Fold in the scallions, bell pepper, and shrimp.
* Pour half of the canola oil into a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. When hot, pour in half of the batter. Use a spatula to spread the batter out evenly across the skillet. Cook for 2 minutes per side, or until nicely browned. Drain the pancake on some paper towel and repeat process with the rest of the oil and batter.

You can pair this up with plain white rice or even some kimchi. And if you like to add a little kick to it, just put in a pinch of Sriracha.
