Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pancake Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the white rice flour, eggs, and water. Whisk until you have a smooth batter.
- Stir in the chopped chives and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set the batter aside.
2. Prepare the Filling:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger root, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the shrimps and cook until they turn pink and are almost fully cooked (about 3-4 minutes). Remove the shrimps from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the red bell pepper, mung beans, and shallots. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
- Return the shrimps to the skillet and toss everything together. Remove from heat.
3. Cook the Pancakes:
- Wipe the skillet clean or use another non-stick skillet. Heat a small amount of peanut oil over medium heat.
- Pour a ladleful of batter into the skillet to form a thin pancake. Spread the batter evenly by tilting the skillet if needed.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to lift. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the pancake is cooked through.
- Remove the pancake from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil as needed.
4. Assemble the Pancakes:
- Place some of the shrimp and vegetable filling on one half of each pancake.
- Sprinkle with fresh coriander leaves and sesame seeds.
- Drizzle with a bit of salsa sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, and vinegar.
5. Serve:
- Fold the pancakes over the filling and serve immediately while hot.

Tips:

- Ensure the batter is smooth and lump-free for even cooking.

- Use fresh shrimps and devein them properly before cooking.

- Preheat the pan and use a non-stick surface to avoid the pancake sticking.

- Chop the vegetables finely to ensure they cook evenly and blend well with the batter.
