Myeongran, salted pollock roe, is scraped from its membrane and loosened with Greek yogurt and mayonnaise, which tame its saltiness into a creamy dressing.
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Slice 250 g potatoes as thinly as possible, then soak them in cold water for 5 minutes to draw out excess starch.
Drain well and press between towels until the surfaces feel dry, so they crisp instead of steaming.
- 2
Preheat a pan over medium heat and spread the potato slices in a single layer without overlap.
Turn them when the edges turn golden, then cook until both sides feel firm and crisp like chips.
- 3
Split 50 g myeongran and scrape out only the roe, leaving the membrane behind.
Mix it evenly with 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon mayonnaise, and 1 teaspoon lemon juice until creamy but still slightly textured.
- 4
Dry 90 g romaine well and cut it into bite-size pieces, then slice 70 g cucumber thinly.
Shake off any remaining moisture because wet vegetables will loosen the dressing and soften the potato crisps quickly.
- 5
Place the romaine and cucumber in a large bowl and lightly toss them with the myeongran dressing first.
Use tongs to lift and fold the vegetables rather than pressing them, so the greens stay crisp.
- 6
Just before serving, place the crisp potatoes over the dressed vegetables and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons shredded roasted seaweed and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Serve immediately, before the potatoes absorb moisture and lose crunch.
