"VIETNAMESE PANCAKE"

The third recipe I wan to share with you all is Vietnamese Pancake. It is very famous in Vietnam. People usually make it in the middle of October due to the weather and tradition.

Ingredients

Batter
500g rice flour
4-5 cups water
1 cup coconut cream
1 tsp turmeric
Pinch of salt
1 bunch shallots, chopped 
Vegetable oil

Filling
1 Onion sliced
Shrimps, cooked with the shell on
500g Pork belly
500g Bean sprouts, blanched
Garnish – Vietnamese mint, basil, coriander leaves 


Preparation

 

Put the pork belly into salted boiling water for 15-20 minutes. Slice thinly and set aside.
Blanch the bean sprouts in boiling water.

   
Prepare the batter by mixing the rice flour with water, coconut cream, turmeric, salt and chopped shallots.
In a frying pan, heat just enough oil to cover the pan(tip off excess) and fry a spoonful of the onions for a couple of minutes until translucent.
Pour a cup full of the batter mixture into the pan with the onion. Tilt the pan so that the mixture spreads thinly.  When the batter begins to crisp around the edge, add some shrimps, 4 or 5 slices of pork belly and a spoonful of bean sprouts. Make sure the edges don’t stick to the pan by brushing a little more oil around the edge of the pancake.Fold one half of the pancake over the ingredients and slip onto serving plate.  Serve with fresh herbs. Repeat the process.   
you can eat with the many kinds of vegetable and using fish sauce to eat with.
THANK YOU!
HOPE YOU WILL BE SUCCESSFUL!!
