Korean Pancakes

['3 tablespoons soy sauce', '2 teaspoons rice vinegar (not seasoned)', '1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted', '1/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes', '1/4 teaspoon Asian sesame oil', '1 cup dried peeled (yellow) mung beans*', '2 medium carrots', '1 bunch scallions (white and pale green parts only)', '1 (5-inch) fresh red chile, thinly sliced crosswise (2 tablespoons), including seeds', '1 tablespoon minced garlic (about 3 cloves)', '1 cup water', '2 large eggs', '2 tablespoons all-purpose flour', '1 teaspoon salt', '4 tablespoons vegetable oil', 'a Japanese Benriner** or other adjustable-blade slicer']

Stir together all dipping-sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
Rinse mung beans in a sieve under cold running water until water runs clear. Cover beans with cold water by 2 inches in a bowl and soak, chilled, at least 2 hours.
Cut carrots into thin matchsticks, preferably using slicer.Halve scallions lengthwise and cut into 2-inch pieces. Combine carrots, scallions, chile, and garlic in a large bowl.
Drain mung beans and purée with water in a food processor until smooth, about 1 minute. Add eggs, flour, and salt and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Pour mixture over vegetables in bowl and stir with a flexible spatula. (Batter will be thick.)
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy nonstick skillet (at least 8 inches across bottom) over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then swirl to coat. Stir batter, then ladle 1 cup batter into skillet, pressing down lightly with a large spatula to flatten and evenly distribute vegetables, to make an 8-inch pancake (less than 1/2 inch thick). Cook until edges begin to bubble and turn golden, 1 to 2 minutes, then turn over with spatula and cook until other side is golden, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer pancake to paper towels to drain. Make 3 more pancakes in same manner, stacking them (after draining briefly) if desired. Transfer pancakes, 1 at a time, to a cutting board and cut each into 6 wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature with dipping sauce.
