Vietnamese Sizzling Crepe(Banh Xeo) with Queen Mushrooms

A great combination of a crispy crepe shell and a sweet, tender mushroom filling.

Ingredients:

  • Bánh Xèo pancake flour mix (or rice flour mixed with turmeric powder and coconut milk)

  • Queen Mushrooms: 200g

  • Bean sprouts, thinly sliced onion wedges, chopped scallions

  • Fresh herbs and greens (mustard greens, lettuce, mint, cilantro)

  • Seasonings, cooking oil

  • Sweet and sour dipping fish sauce.

Instructions:

  1. Prep the filling: Wash the mushrooms and tear them into strips or cut them into bite-sized pieces. Briefly stir-fry the mushrooms and onions with a pinch of bouillon powder until just cooked. Transfer to a bowl.

  2. Mix the batter: Prepare the crepe batter according to the package instructions, then stir in the chopped scallions.

  3. Pour the crepe: Heat a large skillet and brush a thin layer of oil over the surface. Pour in a ladle of batter and swirl to coat the pan thinly and evenly.

  4. Add the filling: Place the cooked mushrooms, onions, and raw bean sprouts on one half of the crepe. Cover with a lid for 2-3 minutes until the batter is cooked through and the edges turn crispy.

  5. Finish: Fold the crepe in half and transfer to a plate. Wrap pieces of the crepe in fresh greens and dip into the sweet and sour fish sauce.
