Ingredients
Scale
For the beef filling:
- 1 lb ground beef (preferably 80/20)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
- 3 scallions (finely chopped)
For assembling:
- 4 large scallion pancakes (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for cooking)
- Optional: chili sauce or hoisin for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the beef filling: In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, white pepper, and chopped scallions. Mix until fully incorporated.
- Shape the patties: Divide the beef mixture into 4 portions and shape each into a thin patty matching the pancake size.
- Cook the pancakes: Heat a skillet, warm a scallion pancake, place a beef patty on top, then another pancake. Cook until golden and crispy, flipping once.
- Serve: Let cool slightly, slice into quarters, and serve hot with chili sauce or hoisin.
Notes
- You can make your own scallion pancakes for a flakier texture or use store-bought for convenience.
- For extra crispiness, press the pancake while cooking.
- Thinly sliced leftover steak can be used instead of ground beef.
