Red Bean Pancake 豆沙锅饼
Red Bean Pancake 豆沙窝饼 is a popular snack in most Chinese restaurants, and is usually served as a dessert or dim sum. It has a crispy exterior texture that goes well with the sweet red bean filling. It is quite easy to make this delicious pancake at home with a few ingredients and some store bought red bean paste. Sesame seeds are my weakness, so I sprinkle them generously on the pancake before frying. The pancake will have a mild fragrance of sesame seeds, and the best time to eat it is while it is hot.
Red Bean Pancake
Ingredients
- 120 g plain flour - sifted
- 200 ml milk or water
- 1 large egg - 70g,lightly beaten
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
250g red bean paste - 红豆沙, divide into 5 portions, 50g
flour thickening for coating - 1 tbsp plain flour
- 1 tbsp rice flour
- 3 tbsp water
- white sesame seeds
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine beaten egg, sugar, milk and oil with a hand whisk. Add in plain flour and mix well. Then pass batter through a sieve and rest it for 20-30 mins.
- Meanwhile take one portion of the red bean paste and place it between plastic sheets. Lightly roll it into a rectangular shape.
- Grease hot flat frying pan with little oil. Scoop about one and a half ladle of batter into medium hot pan. Turn and tilt the pan, so that the batter will run evenly to the edge to form a thin layer of pancake. Place the pan back on to the stove under medium heat, about 1 minute to cook or pancake is set.
- Cool down the pancake slightly (for easy wrapping) and wrap in the red bean paste to a rectangular parcel. Smear a little coating along the edges to seal the pancake. Do the same for the other portion of the batter to make a second pancake.
- Spread the coating on both sides of the parcel and sprinkle sesame seeds on one side of the parcel.
- Add about 2 tablespoons of oil in frying pan, Fry the pancake with sesame seeds side facing down first till golden brown and then flip to the other and fry for another 1-2 minutes. Dish out and cut the pancake to slices before serving.
Notes
豆沙锅饼
材料:
- 120克 中筋面粉
- 200毫升 牛奶或清水
- 1个 大鸡蛋打撒 (约70克)
- 1茶匙 细糖
- 1汤匙 油
- 250克 红豆沙,分成5份 – 50克
面粉糊
- 1汤匙 中筋面粉
- 1汤匙 粘米粉
- 3汤匙 清水
- 适量白芝麻
材料:
- 将鸡蛋,细糖,牛奶及油放入碗中,混合均匀。加入面粉再混匀。然后过滤面糊静置20-30分钟。
- 把一份红豆沙放在2张朔胶纸中间,轻轻擀成长方形,备用。
- 中火把平底锅烧热,刷上少许油,倒入大约1.5勺面糊,把平底锅拿起轻轻转动,让面糊均匀拉开,再把平底锅放回炉子上(中火)约1分钟至凝固即可拿起面皮。
- 趁面皮还有一点温热包入红豆馅 (觉得这时候最好包)。涂上面粉糊在面皮的边缘,然后继续做第二张面皮。
- 然后将包好的锅饼两面涂上面粉糊,一面撒上白芝麻即可。
- 倒约2汤匙油在平底锅里,白芝麻的一面向下,煎约1-2分钟至金黄色才翻另一面再煎1-2分钟即可盛起切开享用.
- 锅饼最好趁热吃 。。。饼皮有点脆脆的还带有芝麻香。赞!
- 我的平底锅不是很大,所以做出来的饼皮也较小,包了5个。锅饼大小就以自己家里的平底锅而定。

Hi dear, can i make this in advance and chill it or freeze it for second day? i will only pan fry it when want to serve on second day. thanks in advance, looking forward for your reply.
Hi, you can wrap the pancake in cling wrap individually and store in the chiller for 2 days. Not in the freezer, as the dough will dries up and cracks.
Thanks dear for your reply. Let me try.. ??
