4. About 2 minutes later, when the bottom of the pancakes turn a little crunchy, gently flip them over.

   

5. Cook another 2 minutes, and then flip them over again. Cook another 1 to 2 minutes until both sides are light golden brown and crunchy.

   

6. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate.
7. Clean the skillet with paper towels, add 2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil and make pancakes with the rest of the batter mixture.

   

8. Serve with rice, as a snack, or as a side dish for beer or soju.
