Method

Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, turmeric powder, salt, and water. Whisk until smooth and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    Crumble the firm tofu into small pieces. Chop the green onions and slice the mushrooms. In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat, then add the tofu, mushrooms, and green onions. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender. Add the bean sprouts and cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from heat.

Cooking Pancakes

  1. 3

    Cook the Pancakes

    In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Pour in enough batter to cover the bottom of the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to crisp. Add a portion of the filling to one half of the pancake and fold the other half over. Cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter and filling.

Dipping Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Dipping Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, lime juice, chili garlic sauce, and sugar until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
