Method

  • step 1

    Heat a small frying pan. Add the mushrooms, soy, five-spice, rice wine, sesame oil and sugar. Stir until the mushrooms are cooked and the sauce is thick, bubbling and clinging to the mushrooms. Warm the pancakes – steam them or heat them in the microwave.

  • step 2

    Serve the mushrooms, spring onions, cucumber, lettuce and hoisin sauce in separate dishes, with the pancakes alongside.

  • step 3

    To assemble, spread a pancake, with a little hoisin sauce. Add some mushrooms, onions, cucumber and lettuce. Fold the pancake and enjoy.

Absolutely DELICIOUS!! I loved them and my meat-eating husband also really enjoyed them. We didn’t feel we needed or wanted the hoisin sauce as the mushrooms were beautifully saucy.

Simple, easy, and delicious. It does say it's a starter so either add more mushrooms or add a side to make a main meal out of it.

Makes a nice healthy alternative to crispy duck, and while you can't beat crispy duck pancakes once in a while the healthy benefits makes this a good regular meal, leaving the duck version for a treat

Has anybody found Chinese pancakes in one of the supermarkets please? I'm struggling to find them and this looks delicious! Thanks

I buy them from Sainsburys (online), but I see your comment is 5 years old so I guess you have sorted out a source by now!
