- Zha Cai (, chopped )
- 1 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds

Instructions
- 1
Heat around 1 tablespoon of oil in pan, fry doubanjiang until aromatic. Then place all the other sauces, mix well with very slow fire. Set aside.
- 2
Half the ham sausage and pan fry them with a small amount of oil in a non-stick pan. You can skip this.
- 3
Cut two lines on wonton wrappers, partially not thoroughly. Deep-fry the wonton wrappers until both two sides turn golden.
- 4
Put the wheat flour and corn flour into a bowl, add water slowly, and stir the batter until smooth.
- 5
Soop around ⅓ cup of the batter and pour it into a non-stick pan. I am using a 28cm diameter pan. You need to adjust the amount of batter used each time if you are using a different size.
- 6
Heat the pan into moderate heat with no oil, add ⅓ cup batter into the pan and spread the batter. It’s best for you to cover the whole bottom of the pan with the batter.

Add an egg and use the spreader to stir and cover the egg on the pancake evenly.
- 8
Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and turn over the pancake after the egg is solidified.
- 9
Cover the whole pancake with the combined sauce.

Sprinkle chopped Zhacai if using on the pancake, put the lettuce, bao cui - the deep-fried wonton wrappers, and sausage on the pancake, and roll all the filings together. Often Jianbing Guozi is cut into halves so that it will be more convenient for serving.
