Moo Shu Pancakes image

I went web-surfing to see if I could find a recipe for homemade pancakes to go along with Toni Gifford's Moo Shu Vegies #137090 because I wanted an authentic taste and due to a little web-surfing this is what I found. I don't know how authentic it is but I'm willing to give it a try. Thanks for the idea Toni and thanks to Tom Fitzmorris for posting it. I haven't made this yet so times are just a guesstimate but please feel free to change it.

Brush the tops of half of these with a little oil and place the other half of these on top. Dust with a little flour and roll out into thin pizza like circles about 6-8 inches across. Stack with waxed paper in between the pancakes.
  • Heat a griddle or large ungreased skillet over medium-low heat. cook one at a time turning often until bubbles begin to form in the dough. Do not brown! With the tip of a knife seperate the pancake into two and place on a warm plate covered with a clean dampened towel mositened with hot water. Continue doing this until all the pancakes are done.

Provided by Food Network

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup water
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tablespoon black sesame seeds
2 tablespoons chives, chopped finely
1 tablespoon toasted orange rind
Pinch of salt
1/2 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1 head of broccoli
1 1/2 cups bean sprouts
2 oranges, sectioned
1/4 cup chopped cashews
1 carrot, finely julienned
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
2 bunches watercress, stems removed
1 cup mung bean sprouts
1/2 cup garlic sprouts (optional)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 tablespoon canola oil
Salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Beat the eggs and add the milk, water and oil. Whisk in flour and strain through a fine mesh sieve. Add remaining ingredients and refrigerate for at least 1/2 hour.
  • Separate the broccoli into florets. Heat both oils together over a high heat and char the broccoli for approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Add remaining ingredients, ensuring that the hoisin sauce is the last, and stir fry for 30 seconds. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Coat a nonstick 12 inch skillet with vegetable oil and put over a low flame. Ladle 1 ounce of crepe batter into skillet and tilt to spread to the edges of the pan. When surface is dry, remove the crepe and repeat this process to make 8 crepes.
  • Fill the crepes and roll them. Brown the crepes in a nonstick skillet, on all sides, adding a few drops of canola oil as necessary.
  • Toss salad ingredients together. Arrange 2 crepes on each plate and top with salad.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect wrapper, use a thin layer of oil and cook it over medium-high heat. This will create a crispy, golden-brown texture.
  • Don't overfill the wrapper. Too much filling will make it difficult to fold and seal the pancake.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pancake. It should be cooked through, but still have a slight chew to it.
  • Serve the pancake hot with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include hoisin sauce, duck sauce, or plum sauce.
  • If you're making the pancake ahead of time, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, simply pan-fry over medium heat until warmed through.

Conclusion:

Moo shu pancakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give moo shu pancakes a try!
