Mushu Hanwoo (with handmade pancakes)

2.5

by me (and Mom)

at the cabin

-Changchon, Seowon, Hoengseong, Gangwon, Republic of Korea-

with Mom & Dad

At the cabin to do some chores, at the behest of my mother.  When I asked if anyone wanted to come, they all declined (“Thanks, but don’t really feel like doing chores this weekend.”).

Frankly, I wasn’t too impressed.

For dinner, Mom made a big show of preparing ingredients for a Chinese spread.  The centerpiece was mushu, made with top-grade hanwoo (Korean beef), featuring hand-made pancakes that she’s been working on.  But after making the pancakes, she suddenly handed the rest to me, telling me to do the actual cooking.

I was also instructed to stir-fry this medley of seafood in oyster sauce, but not too much white pepper, and easy on the corn starch, and add the shrimp last.
