Jeon [0000999]

Ingredients:

1 cup gluten-free rice flour
1/4 cup potato starch (or cornstarch)
1/2 cup water
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup assorted vegetables (e.g., zucchini, scallions, carrots, mushrooms), thinly sliced
1/2 cup protein (e.g., shrimp, thinly sliced beef, or tofu), optional
Vegetable oil for frying
Gluten-free soy sauce or dipping sauce (for serving)

Instructions:

In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rice flour, potato starch, water, egg, and salt. Whisk until you have a smooth batter.

Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat and add enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom.

Dip the thinly sliced vegetables (and protein, if using) into the batter, coating them evenly.

Carefully place the battered vegetables (and protein) into the hot oil, making small pancakes. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Use a slotted spatula to remove the jeon from the oil and drain on paper towels.

Repeat the process until you've used all the batter and made all the jeon.

Serve your Gluten-Free Korean Jeon Appetizers hot with gluten-free soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
