Step-by-Step Instructions

1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually add in the eggs and mix until a smooth batter forms.
2
Heat a small non-stick pan over medium heat and brush with a small amount of vegetable oil. Pour in a small amount of the batter and tilt the pan to evenly coat the bottom.
3
Once the bottom of the crêpe is golden brown, add a small amount of scallions, cilantro, and fermented bean paste on one half of the crêpe. Fold the other half over to form a half-moon shape.
4
Cook for another minute and then flip the crêpe over to cook for another minute. Repeat with the remaining batter and fillings.
