Korean Vegetable Pancake
Rainy weekend evenings are perfect for making crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside Korean pancakes loaded with fresh veggies. Watching the batter sizzle in the pan, a sense of happiness wells up instantly. Prep work for various shredded vegetables is no longer a hassle—your Geedel vegetable chopper gets it all done in the blink of an eye.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 zucchini
- 1/4 carrot
- 1/4 onion
- 2 green onions (scallions)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup ice water
- Salt and cooking oil (to taste)
Instructions:
Step 1: Attach the Blade & Prep Vegetables
Fit your vegetable chopper with the cross chopping blade. Cut the zucchini, carrot, and onion into large chunks that fit easily through the chopper's feeding chute.
Step 2: Chop Efficiently
Place the vegetable chunks into the chopper container, secure the lid tightly. Hold the base steady with one hand and keep turning the handle with the other. Check through the transparent lid until all vegetables are chopped into uniform pieces. This manual vegetable chopper truly shines when handling onions—it lets you avoid the spicy irritation completely.

Step 3: Make the Basic Batter
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, egg, ice water, and a pinch of salt. Stir with chopsticks or a whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Step 4: Mix Filling Uniformly
Add the chopped vegetables and cut green onions to the batter. Use the mixing paddle included with your vegetable chopper as a manual stirring tool. Pour the batter into the chopper container in batches, stirring vigorously and thoroughly to ensure all vegetables are evenly coated with the batter, no dry flour lumps left.

Step 5: Fry Until Golden
Brown Pour a generous amount of cooking oil into a frying pan and heat it up. Add a large spoonful of the vegetable batter and gently spread it flat with the back of the spoon. Fry over medium-low heat until one side sets and the edges turn slightly browned, then flip. Fry until both sides are golden and crispy before serving.
Conclusion
The key to a perfect Korean vegetable pancake lies in the texture of the vegetable pieces and the smoothness of the batter. The Geedel chopper not only quickly produces uniformly sized vegetable shreds but also comes with a mixing paddle that's ideal for blending thick batter. It makes the entire prep process efficient and enjoyable, letting you savor homemade comfort food without the fuss.
