Directions
-
Combine flour, custard powder, egg, and sufficient water in a bowl to make a batter with the consistency of thin cream.
-
Heat a wok over medium heat and grease with 1 teaspoon of oil, swirling to coat the bottom and sides.
-
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the hot wok and swirl immediately to create a thin, even pancake.
-
Cook until the top of the pancake has set and the underside is golden brown.
-
Remove the pancake and set aside on a flat surface, browned side up. Repeat until all batter is used.
-
Spread a dollop of red bean paste onto the center of each pancake.
-
Fold the edges of the pancake inward to enclose the paste completely.
-
Heat a little oil in the wok over medium-high heat.
-
Fry the stuffed pancakes until golden and crispy on the outside.

Cut into bite-sized pieces and serve immediately.

Note
Preparation Tip: Have all ingredients measured and ready before you start cooking, as the pancakes cook quickly.
Ingredient Note: The original ingredient list includes green apples, but they are not used in the cooking steps provided. They may be intended as a fresh garnish or side dish to balance the sweetness of the bean paste.
Storage: Best served fresh and warm. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or skillet to restore crispiness.
Variation: For a vegan version, ensure the custard powder and egg substitutes are plant-based, or omit the egg and add a little more water to the batter.
