Instructions

  1. 1

    Squeeze tofu dry and mix with ground beef, garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil.

  2. 2

    Spread a thin layer of filling on the underside of each perilla leaf and fold in half.

  3. 3

    Coat folded leaves lightly with flour.

  4. 4

    Beat eggs and dip the floured perilla pieces into egg wash.

  5. 5

    Pan-fry over medium heat for about 2 minutes per side until golden.

  6. 6

    Drain on paper towel and serve warm.

Tips

Keep the filling thin so the perilla aroma remains distinct.
Removing tofu moisture helps the jeon hold shape when flipping.
