‘Potato slice Jeon’, a Korean pizza made with potato
Potato slice Jeon is popular in Korea these days because the cooking method is simple and tastes good.
What is Jeon?
Jeon is a food made by kneading ingredients such as meat and vegetables with flour, water or eggs and cooked with a small amount of oil. You can make various jeons by adding various ingredients. Representative jeons known in foreign countries are pajeon or seafood jeon. These are all made by adding green onions and seafood in a batter containing water, eggs, and fry powder.
Unlike ordinary Jeon today’s Potato slice Jeon is made with only potatoes without fry powder & water. The reason why you can make jeon with only potatoes is that the potatoes stick together because of the starch from the potatoes.
