Kimchi pancake with goat's cheese and cucumber

Kimchi, with its slightly tangy, slightly spicy flavour makes the perfect base for a pancake batter. The goat's cheese helps to balance it out with the impossible creaminess.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 cucumber
  • 100 g crumbly goat's cheese
Batter
  • 3 spring onions, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup kimchi, roughly chopped
  • 150 g (½ cup) plain flour
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • ½ tsp sugar
Sauce
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • ½ tsp sugar
  • ¼ tsp Korean chilli powder
  • 1 tsp sesame oil, plus a little extra for cooking
  • ¼ tsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. For the batter, place all the ingredients in a bowl and stir in 125 ml (½ cup) water until just combined.
  2. For the sauce, combine all the ingredients and place in a dipping bowl.
  3. Heat a 22-cm frying pan over medium heat and add the oil. Pour the batter into the pan and reduce the heat a little. Fry for about 3 minutes or until the batter is set and the base browned. Flip the pancake and cook for another 2 minutes, drizzling a little sesame oil around the edges to help it cook. Transfer to a serving plate.
  4. Cut the cucumber into julienne (or use a shredder) and place on top of the pancake. Crumble over the goat cheese and serve.
