Buchujeon
A Korean snack built around garlic chives and all-purpose flour — on the table in 25 minutes. It is weeknight cooking that still hits your targets — 8 grams of protein per serving. Leftovers keep well, so it doubles as next-day lunch without any extra work.

Ingredients
- 1 bunch Garlic chives
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp Rice flour
- 2 Eggs
- 1 cup Ice water
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
Steps
- Whisk the flour, rice flour, egg, and ice water into a thin batter; fold in half the garlic chives.
- Heat a well-oiled pan over medium-high and lay the remaining chives in a neat layer across the surface.
- Ladle over just enough batter to bind the chives — a thick pancake steams; a thin one crisps.
- Cook 3-4 minutes until golden underneath, flip once with confidence, and cook 2-3 minutes more.
- Cut into squares and serve immediately with the soy-vinegar dip; like all jeon, this waits for no one.
