Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Filling

  1. In a small pot, cook the chicken with salt, pepper, and water until fully cooked. Shred it and set aside.
  2. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add ginger, garlic, and spring onion whites. Sauté until fragrant.

  7. Mix in spring onion greens and chopped parsley. Let the filling cool slightly.

Step 2: Assemble the Crepe Rolls

  1. Lay a crepe flat on a clean surface.
  2. Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling near the bottom center, shaping it into a rectangle.
  3. Fold in both vertical sides, then roll from the bottom upwards to form a tight log.

Step 3: Coat the Rolls

  1. Dip each roll in beaten egg, ensuring it’s fully coated.
  2. Roll in bread crumbs, pressing lightly so they adhere.

Step 4: Cook the Crepe Rolls

  • Deep Frying: Heat oil in a pan and deep-fry until golden brown and crispy.
  • Shallow Frying: Heat a little oil in a pan and cook on all sides until crisp.
  • Air Frying: Preheat to 200°C and air-fry for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Baking: Bake at 200°C for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through.
