Method

  1. 01

    Prepare the ingredients

    Cut the scallion into strips, the carrot into thin strips, and the squid into pieces about 1 cm across.

  2. 02

    Mix the batter

    Put the flour in a bowl and add the very cold water. Whisk until smooth; the batter should be pourable but thick.

  3. 03

    Add the filling

    Add the scallion, carrot, and squid to the batter and mix to distribute them.

  4. 04

    Make the sauce

    Mix the soy sauce, rice vinegar, water for the sauce, and chili powder in a small bowl.

  5. 05

    Cook the pancakes

    Heat the sunflower oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Cook the batter in 3 or 4 portions: pour each portion into the hot pan, flatten it, and cook for about 1 minute, until the edges are golden. Flip and cook the other side for 2–3 minutes over low heat, pressing gently to help the squid and vegetables cook through. Repeat with the remaining batter.

  6. 06

    Serve

    Serve the freshly cooked pancakes with the prepared sauce.
