Bánh Xèo - Crispy Vietnamese Pancakes
  1. Batter: whisk everything until smooth and let rest 20–30 minutes.

  2. Cook protein first: season shrimp and pork with salt & pepper, sear pork until lightly golden then remove, sear shrimp until just cooked then remove.

  3. Start the bánh xèo: heat a nonstick pan on medium-high, add 1–2 tbsp oil, pour a thin layer of batter and swirl to spread, then immediately lower heat to medium.

  4. Build + Steam: add the pork, shrimp, and bean sprouts to one half of the bánh xèo, cover with a lid and steam for 2 minutes.

  5. Crisp: uncover, pour 2 tbsp oil around the edges, tilt and swirl so oil runs underneath, cook until edges are golden and lacy and the bottom is deeply crispy, then fold in half.

  6. Repeat: for each bánh xèo start on medium-high heat, pour batter, then drop to medium heat.
