Mung Bean Pancake
Bindaetteok is a savory pancake made of ground mung beans, meat, vegetables and Kimchi. It was originally used as the supporter for the oil-fried meat on a large dining table. Later, it became a delicious-looking food for a binja (pauper), so it was named ‘binjatteok’ (pauper’s cake).
