Crisp & Chewy Simple Chijimi (Pajeon) with Chinese Chives

I recalled the flavor of a Korean restaurant that I used to go to. After many tries of trying to find the right combination, I finally found it. By omitting eggs from the recipe, I was able to make restaurant-quality chijimi.
If adding seafood, try with squid.
After pouring in the mixture with the vegetables into the frying pan, use long chopsticks to spread it out before it hardens.
Fry it slowly on medium-high heat using about 2 tablespoons of sesame oil until golden brown.
You can choose between sauce 1) or 2).
If you have a large bundle of chives, just use half. Recipe by Kichiri-monja

Authentic Chijimi (Korean Pancakes) Authentic Chijimi (Korean Pancakes)
I had an opportunity to learn how to make chijimi from a Korean person and was surprised at how tasty it was. I made it into an easy-to-make amount and created this recipe. I also changed it up a bit to make the dipping sauce easily with ponzu sauce and it actually turned out to be even tastier.◆ The batter will taste good even without letting it rest, but it'll be even better if you let it rest. ◆ If you use a large amount of oil to cook, it'll become crispy. ◆ It's convenient to use a seafood mix for squid and shrimp. ◆ I use ponzu sauce for this dipping sauce, but it can be substituted with 3.5 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1.5 tablespoon of rice vinegar. But it will taste better with ponzu sauce if you have it. ◆ It's also delicious to add kimchi, ground meat, chikuwa, various veggies, etc. into the ingredients. Recipe by Mirusuke cookpad.japan -
