Korean savory pancakes
Korean pancakes
Easy to make & use veggies on hand. It all works! I made 3 pancakes so I doubled this recipe.
* ¾ cup all purpose flour
* ½ teaspoon salt
* ¾ cup water
* vegetable oil
About 2½ to 3 cups of sliced vegetables:
* 4 green onions, cut into 1 inch long
* ⅓ cup leek (optional), sliced thinly 1 inch long
* 3 ounces zucchini matchsticks (about 1/2 cup)
* Half a carrot julienned
* 1 green chili pepper or jalapeño optional, sliced
* 3 ounces onion, sliced
* 1 fresh mushroom white, baby portobello, or shiitake
For the dipping sauce:
* 1 tablespoon soy sauce
* 1 teaspoons white vinegar
* 1 teaspoon Korean hot pepper flakes or cayenne or paprika
* 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
* 1 tablespoon of water
Mix batter until smooth & makes ribbons when you drip it from your utensil. Mix in your veggies.
In a hot pan with oil ( you can test by dropping a small drop of batter & if it bubbles it hot) spoon out the pancake mix & spread, flatten it & push the edges into the pancake to make it more circular.
Once it’s lightly browned & firm, flip to brown the other side. Should be about 3-5 mins on each side.
Mix the dipping sauce & enjoy!

Ontario place protest corruption & bad architecture
Protesting the clear cutting 1000+ mature trees and razing wildlife habitat in downtown #toronto. A little dose of wilderness about to destroyed for a mega Austrian spa 🤦🏻♀️ @thermecanada 👎 concrete park/ mega sidewalk, an underground parking lot & probably a Casio for @fordnationdougford Any modern architect could figure out how to build this without destroying what we have. Foxes, beavers, minks, monarch butterflies, migratory birds & 1000+ mature trees will be wiped out by a greedy small minded few! It’s mind boggling that this design was accepted. This is an embarrassment & there is nothing inspiring about this. Many architects could have designed this 100x better #dougford #wildlife #wildlifeprotection #torontoparks #torontoliving #ontarioplace #ontarioplaceforall #torontotourism #ontariotourism

Vegan kimchi recipe
-1 large head of NAPPA cabbage -Or 2 medium approx 5 lbs
Chop into large bite sized pieces.
Quick rinse & drip dry, place a layer of cabbage into a large bowl.
Each layer sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of flaked sea salt.
Once the salting is completed the cabbage needs to sit for three hours. Every hour mix the cabbage up. Making sure the salt is incorporated well. You will notice salt water at the bottom of the bowl.
Vegan kimchi paste
-1.5 cups of water
-4 shiitake mushrooms
-5x5” of dried kombu seaweed
Add these ingredients to a pot, as soon as it’s boiling remove the kombu. Turn off the heat and cover the pot & steep the mushrooms.
After 15 mins remove the mushrooms bring the heat up and slowly add
-2tbs of potato starch (or rice flour)
Mix it continuously until it becomes porridge like consistency. Cool down the paste.
In a blender
-paste
-4 cloves of garlic
-1 or 2 inches of ginger
-2 fresh red chilies
-2 persimmons remove the peel (or 1/2 Asian pear)
-1 tsp of salt
Blend until smooth
After the 3 hours check to see if it’s time to wash. The cabbage will become softer and bends a bit without snapping off.
Wash it at least 4 times, you need to get the salt off. A little is fine, taste a few pieces if still salty keep washing.
Let the cabbage sit for 1 hour in a colander. We need the water and excess salt to drip down. In a large bowl add
-3/4 cup of gochugaru (hot chili flakes) -you can add more if you want it spicier Add the kimchi paste & mix them together. Add
-10 oz of julienne daikon
-10 oz of julienne carrots
-4 chopped green onions (1-2" long)
-handful of mustard greens (optional)
Mix them & then add the cabbage.
Mix by clean hands or large spoons until all the cabbage is covered by the sauce.
Next step is fermenting... there are many different methods. I like glass Tupperware with the lid on (please don't use plastic!!) or an earthen/pickling pot with the weights and lid.
Leave the kimchi on the countertop for 24 hours & after you can put it in the fridge or ferment it longer on the counter. Even in the fridge it keeps fermenting but very slowly #veganfood #vegankimchi #koreanfood #plantbasedrecipes #blitzkriegbop #ramones #vegano

Okinawa yam polenta
1 cup - polenta
4 cups -water with a bit of broth
Dash of salt
Bring water to a boil add some broth.
Slowly pour in the polenta stirring or whisking constantly.
(You don’t want to form clumps, tho I don’t mind a few chewy clumps)
Once all the polenta has been added & it’s all incorporated, turn off heat and cover. Let stand for 15 mins then add a bit of olive oil and/or butter & salt. Stir it all in and cover again.
After a few mins it’s ready to serve.
Polenta toppings
Fry a sliced Okinawa yam for about 5 mins on each side on med low heat. Once done remove from pan (you can use any yam since these aren’t easy to find or you can skip this part)
Quickly sauté for about 5 mins onions, garlic, red pepper, 1/2 a tomato then kale & spinach. Don’t over cook!! We want the color. We want to eat colors!!
Add salt, pepper & paprika mix it all in then turn off heat & cover. After a few mins it’s ready to serve.
