    1. Hi Mythreyi, you can omit the dried shrimps and make these vegetarian. They are just as good.

    1. Thank you. I agree, the Chinese chives has the beautiful flavour and it gives the otherwise plain pancake a lift to another level. Sometimes I substitute with Thai basil and they are equally good.

    1. Lorraine I have a feeling your pancakes will turn out to be something from a 3hats restaurant kitchen.

  13. Hi Veronica! I remember my mum making this for us when we were young but of course not rolled up so prettily like yours :) And i think yours will taste better with some dried shrimps in them.

  17. Hi Veronica, I made this today. Didn't look like yours. Is the batter supposed to be runny and not thick? It was better after I added more water.

  18. Hi Veronica. This is a good pancake recipe. I have made it a few times now. I even omitted the chives and made it with kimchi instead. Totally yummy.-natasha
