Tips: Dry the seafood well so the batter doesn't become watery and the edges turn crisp.
Tips: Spread the batter thinly enough that you can just faintly see the bottom of the pan rather than pouring it in thickly.
Tips: Before flipping, check that the edges have set and the pancake moves when you shake the pan to help prevent tearing.
Tips: Using scallop adductor muscle instead of abalone shortens the prep time and gives the dish a tender texture.
