- 1 King oyster mushroom (finely chopped, similar size to enoki)

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Introducing Enoki Mushroom Pancakes, a delightful dish perfect for those days when the weather calls for something warm and satisfying. These pancakes highlight the unique texture and savory flavor of enoki mushrooms.
Step 2
First, gather your ingredients: the star, enoki mushrooms, along with imitation crab sticks, king oyster mushrooms, and chives for added flavor. You’ll also need an egg, flour, water, and salt.
Step 3
Prepare the vegetables and other ingredients. Trim the base of the enoki mushrooms and cut them into roughly 3-4 cm lengths. Finely chop the imitation crab sticks and the king oyster mushroom to a similar size as the enoki. Finally, finely chop the chives. This completes your ingredient preparation.
Step 4
In a bowl, combine the chopped enoki mushrooms, imitation crab sticks, king oyster mushrooms, and chives. Add the egg, flour, water, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything together thoroughly with a spoon until a batter forms. If the batter seems too thick, add a little more water; if it’s too thin, add a bit more flour to reach a good consistency.
Step 5
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Spoon portions of the batter onto the hot pan, shaping them into pancakes. Cook until golden brown and crispy on both sides, flipping gently. Cooking over medium heat ensures the pancakes are cooked through without burning.
Step 6
Your delicious Enoki Mushroom Pancakes are now ready! They are perfectly golden brown, crispy on the outside, and delightfully tender within, showcasing the wonderful combination of textures and flavors.
Step 7
For an extra burst of flavor, serve these pancakes with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, vinegar, and chili powder, according to your preference. They are best enjoyed immediately while still warm.
