    Spread egg skins. Beat the eggs, put a little oil in a large spoon, pour in a proper amount of egg liquid (about a stir-fried spoon), then turn the large spoon to spread out an egg skin. Carefully remove it and continue to spread out the next one. Generally, 5 eggs can spread out 5 or 6 egg skins.

  • Menzi Make Tips

    It is better to use stock instead of water when mixing the filling. The reason for adding rice and starch separately is to blend the filling more evenly. The ratio of starch is not fixed; be sure to add the starch while mixing. I usually use about 4 liang of starch.
