Ingredients

Soy Sauce - 2 fl oz
Rice Vinegar for Sushi - 2 spoons
Sesame Oil - ½ spoons
Toasted Sesame - 1 tablespoon
Wheat Flour - 4.2 oz
Glutinous Rice Flour - 1.4 oz
Salt - ½ spoons
Chicken Egg - 1 piece
Whole egg - 1 piece
Ground ancho chili pepper - 1 piece
Ground Black Pepper - a pinch
Vegetable Oil - 1 tablespoon
Scallions - 0.7 oz
Cilantro - 0.7 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Mix the soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil (almost all of it, leaving out a couple of drops), then add the toasted sesame seeds that were pre-roasted in a dry skillet. Set the resulting sauce aside for a while.

Step 2

Finely chop all the herbs with a sharp knife. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together both types of flour, salt, egg, yolk, a cup of water, as well as the chili that has been deseeded and finely chopped, black pepper, and the remaining sesame oil.

Step 3

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little vegetable oil. Using a ladle, pour in a third of the prepared batter and let it spread across the surface. Immediately sprinkle evenly with herbs (one-third of the volume).

Step 4

Cook the pancake for two minutes, until the edges are properly set, then gently flip it with a spatula and cook for another minute. In the same way, cook two more pancakes with the remaining batter.

Step 5

Transfer them to paper towels and let them cool slightly, then use a sharp knife to cut each one into eight pieces and arrange them on serving plates. Serve with sauce.
