Description

These Taiwanese Beef Stuffed Scallion Pancakes are a delicious fusion of flavors, with savory beef and aromatic scallions enveloped in crispy pancakes. Perfect for a satisfying meal or as a unique appetizer.


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

  1. 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.
  2. Shape the patties: Divide the beef mixture into 4 portions and shape each into a thin patty matching the pancake size.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
