Scoop out the potato insides/pulp , leaving a thin potato “shell”.

In a bowl, mash the potato insides. Stir in the drained tuna, mayonnaise, salt and pepper as needed. Mix in any of the optional items of your choice to create your filling.

Spoon potato filling into the “shells”, mounding the filling. Place on baking sheet and top with grated cheese.

Seafood green onion pancake

Seafood green onion pancake maangchi’s recipe Some tips when making these pancakes: • For a vegetarian version, skip the seafood and egg and use vegetable stock. • The batter should be runny, because thick batter will clump when you cook it and your pancake won’t turn out well. • While cooking, press down and poke the pancake to make some gaps in between the green onions. You should see some steam coming up through the gaps, that means the green onions are being cooked nicely. • This pancake is too heavy to toss up and flip, so don’t try it! You’ll need a big spatula to turn it over. • Be sure to make the dipping sauce, that’s the best way to enjoy it!
