Wanja Jeon (Korean Beef Patties)
  	  		완자전 / 동그랑땡
  	  	
  			
		  	  		
  			This is a kind of classic Korean meat patty that is also known as donggurang ddeng (동그랑땡). Though some people make this with just beef and sometimes tofu, I like to skip the tofu and add pork instead. You can dip the patties in a little soy sauce and vinegar if you like.   		
  	  	Recipe Ingredients:
  	
  		  			- 4 brown mushroom (shiitake)
 
  		  			- 1 medium onion
 
  		  			- l/3 carrot
 
  		  			- 10 oz ground pork
 
  		  			- 10 oz lean ground beef
 
  		  			- 1 tbsp crushed garlic
 
  		  			- 1 tsp grated ginger
 
  		  			- 1 tbsp green onion
 
  		  			- 2-3 eggs
 
  		  			- 1/2 cup flour
 
  		  			- 5-6 tbsp of vegetable oil
 
  		  			- salt and pepper to taste
 
  		  	
  	Recipe Steps:
  	
  		  			- Mix ground beef and pork, put dash salt and pepper – set aside.
 
  		  			- Discard the ends of shiitake mushroom stems and slice caps into small pieces. Chop onions and grate carrots.
 
  		  			- Mix the ground beef and pork together with the sliced vegetables. Add garlic, ginger, and green onion.
 
  		  			- Add about 3 tbsp of the flour into the mixture and begin kneading. Add more flour if necessary. Form small, flattened round patties with your hands, about 1½" diameter. Set aside.
 
  		  			- Beat eggs well and add a dash of salt and pepper. Set aside in a bowl. Add the rest of the flour to a plate.
 
  		  			- Prepare the patties for frying: dip each patty into the flour plate, coating lightly. Then dip the flour coated patties into the egg mixture.
 
  		  			- Heat enough vegetable oil to cover a frying pan and fry the patties on medium heat for 3-4 min on each side.
