Aehobakjeon (Korean Zucchini Pancakes) with Sesame Dipping Sauce

Aehobakjeon  (Korean Zucchini Pancakes) with Sesame Dipping Sauce

Zucchini !

The moment I say the word my family runs in the other direction. 

Don’t ask me why,must be one of my experiments has put them off. ☺

When I said that I am making pancakes the girls were enthusiastic. In fact even yesterday they kept asking me when I am making pancakes. The trouble is they had holidays and they kept friend hopping so I made them without them around. Much to their irritation.  Maybe next Saturday I will make them for their evening snack.

Where did I get the recipe? From Mir's place, my friend with whom  am paired for BM pairs.

Meanwhile hubby and I enjoyed these pancakes. Even the maid was very happy with the flavour and kept asking me how I made the dosa.

The substitute here is chilli powder in place of gochugaru and the rice wine vinegar I used wine vinegar .

Korean Cauliflower Stir Fry

Korean Cauliflower Stir Fry

Cauliflower!

Hubby loves it kids hate it!

So the solution to my problem is making something new as often as possible. This recipe from Mir's space  was too good to give up on. This week I am paired with Mir of The Schizo Chef  for BM pairs and I am at a loss as to what to make. I am going Southeast Asian this  time .

This was a new taste for us. As we have never eaten anything Korean... sorry we have eaten only Kimchi. That too I suspect is an Indianised version.

I have used in place of rice vinegar red wine vinegar.

Rest of the recipe is followed without any changes.

The best part was when the cauliflower and garlic was cooking hubby came to the kitchen just to see that I do not tweak the recipe.: D
