What You’ll Need 🥞

Here’s a simple list of ingredients you’ll need to whip up these delicious pancakes:

- 120 grams of all-purpose flour (that’s about 1 cup)
- 150 milliliters of water (just over half a cup)
- 2 eggs
- Shrimp (a handful, peeled and cleaned)
- Chopped green onions (a sprinkle)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Fish cake or ham (cut into small pieces, optional)

Let’s Get Cooking! 🧑‍🍳

Step 1: Make the Batter
1. Grab a mixing bowl and add the flour.
2. Slowly pour in the water while stirring. Keep mixing until you have a smooth batter.
3. Add a pinch of salt and some pepper to taste. Set this aside for now.

Step 2: Prepare the Filling
1. In another bowl, toss in the cleaned shrimp and your choice of fish cake or ham.
2. Crack the eggs into the bowl and add the chopped green onions.
3. Mix everything together until well combined. This will be your tasty filling!

Step 3: Cook the Pancakes
1. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a little oil.
2. Once the oil is hot, lower the heat to medium-low.
3. Scoop a spoonful of the batter into the pan. Gently swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin, round shape.
4. Now, sprinkle your filling evenly over the batter.
5. Cook until the bottom is set and lightly golden. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
6. Carefully flip the pancake over and cook the other side until it’s golden brown and cooked through.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!
Once your pancake is ready, take it out of the pan and let it cool for a minute. The outside will be crispy, and the inside will be soft and flavorful. Each bite is a delightful mix of egg, shrimp, and green onions.

These pancakes are perfect for a snack or even a light meal. You can serve them with some chili sauce or your favorite dipping sauce for an extra kick!
