Simple potato pancake (Gamjajeon)

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce and lime juice. You can use 1 tablespoon of vinegar as an alternative to lime juice.

Chop the green onion, onion, and optional jalapeño, then add them to the sauce.

Add sugar to the sauce and mix well. Set aside.

Peel a large potato and soak it in cold water to prevent browning.

Grate the potato into a bowl.

Add salt to the grated potato and mix.

Grate about a quarter cup of onion and add it to the potato mixture.

Add potato starch to the mixture to thicken the batter and mix well.

Heat a 9-inch non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add cooking oil.

Pour the batter into the hot pan and spread it evenly to form a round pancake.

Cook for about 5 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.

Flip the pancake and cook the other side for another 5 minutes until golden brown. Add more oil if needed for extra crispiness.

Once both sides are cooked, turn off the heat and transfer the pancake to a plate.

Cut the pancake into wedges, like a pizza.

Serve the hot pancake with the dipping sauce. Enjoy!
