Ingredients

  • 300 g Medium-gluten flour
  • 180 g Water
  • 2 g of Salt
  • Cooking Oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 Carrot optional
  • 1 Potato optional
  • 100 g of Lettuce
  • 2 Ham sausage optional
  • 100 g of Roasted chicken fillet optional
  • 24 grams of medium-gluten flour
  • 15 grams of vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Pour the flour and salt into a bowl and add warm water (about 80 degrees).
  • Mix with chopsticks until it begins to look like the picture below. It is recommended that you make the dough for the cake softer, but not too sticky.
  • Knead by hand until smooth, and then cover with plastic wrap and let rest (It doesn’t need to be perfectly smooth, as it will soften when resting).
  • Use 24 grams of medium-gluten flour, 15 grams of vegetable oil and mix until no dry powder is formed. This is to be incorporated into the dough.
  • The dough is divided into small pieces and lightly pressed flat. I usually divide it into 55-60 gram pieces.
  • Take a piece of flour/oil mixture, and place in the center of the flattened dough.
  • Fold closed.
  • Then pinch closed the opening, and lay back onto the counter (opening face-down).
  • Roll our with a rolling pin until it is about 6 inches in diameter, being sure to not roll out the flour/oil mixture.
  • Put a little oil in a non-stick pan, once heated, place a pancake in the pan for about 30 seconds.
  • Then turn to medium heat, let the cake slowly bulge, paying close attention.
  • Then turn the heat to low, poke the pancake with chopsticks, and quickly pour the egg that was broken in advance evenly on the pancake.
  • It is cooked until the egg is evenly cooked on top.
  • Use your favorite garlic sauce, sweet sauce, etc. to the pancake.
  • Add the ingredients such as potato, carrot, lettuce, roast chicken, Ham sausage(prepared in advance) and roll them up.
