These have a generous splash of soy sauce for seasoning and flour to bind the batter so they fry up perfectly. A quick mayo-sriracha sauce is the perfect, flavor-packed finishing touch. Ingredients 6 large eggs 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari 6 cup shredded cabbage (about 1 lb.) ¾ cup chopped kimchi 4 scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-in. lengths 1 cup all-purpose flour ¼ cup canola or other neutral oil, divided, plus more if needed Mayonnaise mixed with sriracha, for serving (optional) Directions Whisk eggs and soy sauce in a large bowl. Add cabbage, kimchi, and scallions; toss to combine. Stir in flour. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium. Working in batches, drop ¾ cup batter for each patty into oil. Cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining oil and cabbage mixture. Serve with sriracha mayo, if desired.
