- 1/2 cup vegetable oil (or any neutral oil)
- 14 oz enoki mushrooms

- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch (or potato starch)

Instructions
- 1
Trim the ends of the mushrooms off, about 1.5 inches where you see the dirt.
- 2
Slice enoki mushrooms into 1 inch long pieces.
- 3
Give mushroom pieces a thorough rinse with cold running water to remove any odor or dirt and shake out as much excess water as possible. Pat super dry with clean paper towels to prevent soggy pancakes.

In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped enoki mushrooms, eggs, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, green onions, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and sticky.

Heat 2 tbsp or 30 ml of vegetable oil in a large non-stick pan on medium heat. Add half of the pancake batter into the pan and spread it evenly into a circle with a spatula. Fry until the bottom becomes golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Flip pancake over with a large spatula or slide it onto a plate and then flip the pancake into the pan. Pour 2 tbsp or 30 ml of vegetable oil around the edges of the pancake. Fry on the other side until the bottom is golden brown, about 4-6 minutes.

Slice the pancake with a pizza cutter/clean kitchen scissors or transfer to a cutting board and slice into smaller pieces with a sharp knife. Repeat the process for the remaining pancake.
