Korean Pancakes Pajeon

I make these every now and then when I don't have much in the fridge but vegetable scraps. Whatever you have on hand is good. I happened to have green onions, dried baby shrimp, and seaweed flakes. Chop them small and thin and throw them all in the savory batter. Brown both sides, and serve them with a dipping sauce. Makes a great lunch or snack.
