• 1/2 cup white rice flour
• ▢3 tbsp cornstarch
• ▢
• ▢1/4 tsp salt
• ▢1/4 tsp sugar
• ▢1/4 tsp turmeric
• ▢1/3 cup full-fat coconut milk
• ▢1/2 cup water
• ▢1/4 cup chopped green onions
• 1 egg, beaten

Filling:

• 2 cups cremini mushrooms or white button mushrooms, sliced
• ▢1 cup shredded carrots
• ▢1 cup mung bean sprouts

Asian sauce for dipping

• Whisk together the dry ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, white rice flour, cornstarch, all-purpose flour, salt, sugar, and turmeric. 
• Add the wet ingredients. Pour in the coconut milk and water. Add the chopped green onions.
• Whisk until combined. Next, whisk until you get a smooth batter. Cover and let the batter rest for at least 15 minutes.
• Sauté the vegetables. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the carrot matchsticks and sliced mushrooms. Season with a pinch of salt and ground black pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes or until the carrots are tender but still slightly crunchy.
• • Heat the oil. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat. Use a kitchen paper towel to spread the oil evenly.
  • Pour in the batter. Pour about 3/4 cup (or less if using a small pan) of the batter into the skillet and quickly tilt to spread it into an even thin layer. Cook for 2 minutes.
  • Top with the filling. Top one-half of the crêpe with some of the cooked mushrooms, tofu, carrots, and a handful of bean sprouts. Do not go overboard with the amount of filling.
  • Cook until golden brown. Cook the crêpe uncovered for another 3-5 minutes or until it is golden brown and crispy.
  • Fold it in half. Using a spatula, fold the bánh xèo in half, covering the halve containing the filling. Fold again so it's a triangle. Transfer to a serving plate and repeat with the remaining batter and filling.
  • Option to heat crepes in the oven to crisp up: place in single layer on baking sheet. Serve with Asian dipping sauce or a drizzle of tamari.
