Gamjajeon, or Korean potato pancake, is a savory treat that puts a delightful spin on the classic potato dish.

This savory pancake is made by finely grating fresh potatoes and then pan-frying them until golden, resulting in a crispy outside and a tender, fluffy interior. A sprinkle of salt or a garnish of sliced green onions adds the perfect finishing touch.

This cooking method beautifully highlights the natural flavor and subtle sweetness of the potato, making each bite a comforting experience. The chewy texture, thanks to the starch in the potatoes, makes gamjajeon an addictive snack or side dish.

If you’re tired of the same old French fries and looking for something different, give gamjajeon a try!
