Ingredients
  • 33 g mung bean flour
  • 34.7 g all-purpose wheat flour
  • 150 ml water
  • 108.3 g chicken breast
  • 5.9643 tsp sesame oil
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 15.2 g hoisin sauce
  • 5 g sweet chili sauce
  • 7.6 g fresh cilantro
  • 7.6 g scallions
Method
  1. 01In a bowl, whisk mung bean flour, all-purpose wheat flour, and 150ml water until smooth and thin. Set batter aside to rest for 10 minutes.
  2. 02Heat 1 tsp of sesame oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add finely minced chicken breast and salt, cooking for 4 to 5 minutes until completely cooked through, opaque throughout, and reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Transfer chicken to a bowl.
  3. 03Wipe skillet clean and lightly coat with remaining 1.5 tsp sesame oil over medium heat.
  4. 04Pour batter into pan, swirling immediately to form a thin, round crepe. Cook for 2 minutes until edges lift and bottom turns light golden brown.
  5. 05Spread hoisin sauce and sweet chili sauce evenly over the crepe. Distribute cooked minced chicken, chopped cilantro, and chopped scallions across the center.
  6. 06Fold opposite sides of crepe inward to form a sealed rectangular packet. Serve immediately while hot and crisp.
