Instructions

6 steps

1
Rinse the seafood mix in cold, salted water, drain thoroughly, and pat completely dry with paper towels to prevent soggy pancakes.

2
Whisk the all-purpose flour and pancake mix with icy water to form a light, thin batter.
3
Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Lay the scallions down in a parallel layer.
4
Arrange the dried seafood and sliced red chili evenly over the scallions.
5
Pour the batter slowly over the scallions and seafood, followed immediately by a drizzle of the beaten egg on top.
6
Cook for 4-5 minutes until the bottom is deeply golden and crisp. Flip with a large spatula, add remaining oil to the edges, and press down firmly to cook the seafood through (another 3-4 minutes).
