Jianbing Hezi (Savory Pancake Roll)

Jianbing Hezi

      “Jianbing Hezi uses soft fried pancakes as wrappers, filled with stuffing, then folded into a semi-circle or rectangle, and pan-fried in vegetable oil until both sides are lightly browned. The filling is usually made mainly of chives and eggs.”　　

　　The finished product is uniform in size, neatly presented, bright yellow in color, with a crispy outer crust and savory filling. It is a long-established traditional snack in our city. All ingredients are locally sourced, giving it a strong regional character.

Method:

1. Wash and chop the chives. Scramble the eggs until cooked and crumble them. Mix the chives, eggs, dried shrimp, salt, MSG, and sesame oil to make the filling.

2. Lightly wet the pancakes with water, cut them into rectangles, and wrap the filling inside each to form a hezi (folded shape).

3. Heat a flat pan over medium heat, add some oil, place the pancake rolls in the pan, and fry until both sides turn golden brown and the filling is fully cooked. Cut each roll in half and serve on a plate.
