    Thanks for the video, will be trying this out. When I was living in Beijing, I bought this twice a day from the same guy every single day. Once in the morning and once after work. The combination of the crispy and smooth textures as well as the spice and coriander was unlike anything I'd ever eaten before.

    I ate this everyday in China too, I used to buy it from a lovely young couple who were extremely clean and modern in their cooking.
    They had a secret that I'll share with you, you can use plain tortilla chips (including Doritos) as your cuibing!
    That's what they did and it was amazing.
    Way more convenient than deep frying..

    Great recipe. Here are some things I've added to get my own personal version: add more water to the batter to make it more liquid (similar to crepe batter). Use medium/high heat and use a flat pan. Once you put in the batter in the pan, spread the batter and put the rest back to your bowl in order to get a thin jianbing.
    Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to taste an 'authentic' jianbing yet, but I can tell that this recipe is pretty delicious.
    Keep up the great work, Andong!

    Would you consider doing a recipe on Shandong Jiānbing? The crepe batter seems to be more dough like, and the sauce seems different from all the Jianbing Guozi I had while living in Shanghai. I’d be interested to see what the differences were, but can only ever find detailed recipes on Jiānbing Guozi.
