For the Pancakes

  • 1 teaspoon White Pepper Can substitute with black pepper.
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil Essential for authentic flavor.
  • 2 tablespoons Cooking Oil Choose any high smoke point oil.

  • Small Bowl
  • whisk

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, finely chop the fresh scallions and add a pinch of salt, white pepper, and sesame oil. Stir until well-coated.
  2. Crack open two eggs and whisk them in a small bowl. Lightly brush both sides of two rice paper sheets with the egg and overlap them slightly.
  3. Spread an even layer of the scallion filling across the overlapping sheets. Roll the rice paper into a tight log and twist into a spiral.
  4. Heat about 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a non-stick skillet. Place each pancake in the pan and cook for about 2 minutes per side until golden brown.
  5. While frying, prepare the dipping sauce by combining soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili oil in a small bowl. Stir until well mixed.
  6. Remove pancakes from the skillet and place on a paper towel. Serve hot with the dipping sauce on the side.
