Asparagus and spring onions in pancake batter with spicy fermented hot pepper paste. Pancakes with asparagus and Gochujang
Savory pancakes with green asparagus and Korean gochujang paste are a great idea for a quick lunch, dinner or dinner. The recipe for this delicious dish comes from the book SMAK by Yotam Ottolenga and Ixty Belfrage. In the book, the dish is described as pancakes, but I think they can also be described as omelettes or pancakes, pancakes or pancakes.

Gochujang is a Korean hot pepper paste, fermented. It is used for marinating meat, as a seasoning for soups, stews and for pickling vegetables, e.g. kimchi. It is also a great addition to pancake batter. The spiciness and taste of the pancakes will depend, among other things, on the quality of the gochujang paste used. So try it before adding it to the dough so there are no surprises.
