Step-by-step recipe
Step 1:
Place the flour in a deep bowl, add salt and water. Stir, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside for an hour and a half.

Thinly slice the carrots, celery, and daikon radish. Boil the bean sprouts and glass noodles.
Step 3:
Mix the vegetables in a deep bowl, add a teaspoon of salt, stir and leave for 15 minutes.
Step 4:
Squeeze the vegetables to remove any excess juice, place them in a clean bowl, and add the glass noodles, bean sprouts, chili oil, soy sauce, black rice vinegar, Sichuan peppercorn oil, sugar, and sesame oil. Mix gently.
Step 5:
Cut boiled pork belly, celery, green onions into strips, chop garlic.
Step 6:
Place celery in a bowl, add salt, squeeze out the excess water and place in a bowl with the remaining ingredients.
Step 7:
Add soy sauce, black rice vinegar, sugar, garlic, chili oil and mix gently.
Step 8:
Knead the dough, spread it in a thin layer on a hot surface, and fry thin pancakes on both sides.
Step 9:
Wrap each pancake with a portion of filling – vegan or meat – and roll it up.
Cooking tips
Pepper oil, bean sprouts, and rice vinegar can be purchased at a Chinese grocery store.
Make pancakes by taking a lump of dough in your hand and lightly touching it to the hot surface of the pancake maker.
Fold the filling into the crepe so that it sticks out slightly at one end, leaving a free edge on the other side. Cover the filling with the free edge and fold it over on both sides.
