[Korean Food] Onion Pancake Recipe Onion Effect

Hello?

It's a man who cooks by chance.

 

The food I'm going to introduce today is 'Onion Pancake'. A few people who live alone asked me for a simple pancake recipe, so I made it. It's a great recipe to make and eat when you want a quick drink at home on a rainy day. In addition, onions are excellent ingredients for various toxins and antioxidants. Today, I will tell you not only the simple recipe but also the effects that I didn't know before. Here we go.

 

the effectiveness of onions

*Toxin removal

The amino acids methionine and cysteine in onions have the effect of removing lead, cadmium, and mercury from the body. It is also said that vitamin C, which is abundant in onions, plays a role in helping the body detoxify.

 

*Anti-cancer effects

Various antioxidants in onions help prevent cell damage as well as reduce the incidence of various cancer diseases such as oral and colon cancer. In addition, studies have shown that the sulfur content of onions is excellent in preventing cell mutation and helping to prevent the normal cell extinction process to suppress the occurrence of tumors and cancer.

 

*Anti-oxidizing action

Onions are rich in a powerful antioxidant called glutathione. It helps prevent cancer as well as various brain diseases such as heart disease and Alzheimer's. Consistent consumption of onions has the effect of producing a greater amount of glutathione in our bodies.

 

*Cardiovascular health

Quercetin, which is contained in large amounts in onion skins, serves to lower blood pressure, and the sulfur component improves the function of the red blood cell membrane and lowers the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the body. It works very effectively to improve our body's cardiovascular health.

 

*Prevention of diabetes

The ingredient called emulsionpropylalin, which is rich in onions, has the effect of lowering blood sugar. Studies have shown that consuming emulsified propylaline increases insulin levels as blood sugar levels decrease. Chromium, which is high in onions, also helps to boost insulin production by controlling blood sugar levels.

First, prepare the ingredients.

In fact, the only ingredient that goes into onion pancakes is onions. As I said above, the purpose is to make very simple pancakes, so only onions are included. That doesn't mean it's not bad.

Prepare 1 onion in a large size and slice it thinly.

 

Let me make the batter.

Put sliced onions in a wide bowl with 1/3t of flower salt and a pinch of pepper. The amount of salt is not fixed, but you can add or subtract the amount of salt depending on the size of the onion. The onion prepared by Eoyonam was a large size, weighing more than 200 grams.

 

 

Onionjeon-batter

 

Add 2T of potato starch and 1T of frying powder (or pancake powder) and mix to make batter.

If you don't have any potato starch, you can just add the frying powder (or pancake powder). If you don't have frying powder (or pancake powder), you can just add potato starch. The type of starch doesn't matter whether it's corn or sweet potato.

 

Never add water when mixing with a lot of ingredients. Because it's seasoned, the moisture comes out of the onion after a while. Be careful if you add water, it may be squishy and tear the pancakes.

Leave it for about five minutes.

 

 

Onionjeon-panfrying

 

I'm going to make it.

Heat a pan over a medium heat with plenty of oil, then top with the batter. Use your hands or tools to press down and adjust the shape and thickness. Onion pancakes are thicker than thinner ones because they are sweeter.

 

Turn it over when the edges are golden.

Flip the other side the same way.

It's done.

It looks so delicious because it's golden, right?

Even the only ingredient that goes in is onion, so it's a pancake that can be easily made even by people living alone.

It's the best pancake you can easily make when you think of a glass of makgeolli on a rainy day. Enjoy your meal and have a happy Tuesday.

Thank you.
