Hoddeok....호떡....

I've got tempted when I was watching one of Korean show at KBS World when the VJ is eating Hoddeok at Insadong...And finally tried myself and walla.... it's nice and I can eat 4 hoddeok at one go.....

Hoddeok is a sweet Korean pancake...and very popular street food. This usually serve during winter... However you can see it being sold all year round in Korea...

Lifted the recipe from Maangchi.com....Thank you for sharing this great recipe....... I changed a bit the recipe based on how I did it...


Ingredients:

2 Cups of flour
1 cup of lukewarm water
2 ts dry yeast
1/4 ts salt
1 tbs vegetable oil
2 tbs sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 ts cinnamon - I put less since I don't really like cinnamon
2 ts walnut (I didn't add this)

Methods:

Dough

1) add white sugar, yeast, salt,vegetable oil into the lukewarm water and stir
2) add the water to flour
3) Let the dough rise for about an hour
4) Knead to remove bubles, and let rise for another  10-15 minutes



Filling

1) add brown sugar,cinnamon and walnut together <I'm only using brown sugar and cinnamon>

* you can use any filling based on your preference or liking

Next, let's make hoddeuk!
  1. Knead the dough again to remove the gas bubbles.
  2. Place and spread flour on your kneading board or you can use cutting board
  3. Put the dough on the board and knead it. Make it into a lump, and cut it into 8 equal-sized balls.
  4. Take 1 dough ball,flatten it, put some filling in the center of the dough, and then seal it to make a ball.
  5. Repeat this with the balance of the ball
  6. Heat up your non-stick pan over medium heat and add some vegetable oil.
  7. Place 1 ball on the pan and let it cook for 30 seconds.
  8. When the bottom of the dough ball is light golden brown, turn it over and press the dough with a spatula to make a thin and wide circle (about the size of a CD).
  9. Let it cook about 1 minute until the bottom is golden brown.
  10. Turn it over again and turn down the heat very low.
  11. Place the lid on the pan and cook 1 more minute. The brown sugar filling mixture will be melted to syrup!
Serve hot!
