Ingredients

The following ingredients have 9 Servings
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt, plus more for seasoning
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 8 cups finely shredded cabbage
  • 1 bunch scallions, trimmed and chopped, to yield about a heaping cup
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons mirin
  • 1 teaspoon hot chili sauce or Sriracha, optional
  • ½ teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • Grapeseed or other neutral oil for frying

Instruction

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs with the soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt. Gradually add the flour until incorporated. Fold in cabbage and scallions.
  • Make the sauce: combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of water. Set aside.
  • In a large sauté pan, warm a couple tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat until glistening. Pinch batter with hands and carefully drop the mounds into the oil—in a large skillet, you should be able to fry 4 at a time. Lower the heat to medium. Cook on each side for about 3 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate and season lightly with salt. Serve with soy-dipping sauce.
