["Whip the egg white until stiff.", "Cut the imitation crab meat into little strips lengthwise than.", "Use the back of your knife to""flatten"" the shrimp then mince.", "Mix all the ingredients for the panckae until they bind well (you can adjust the consistency with some cornstarch or more egg whites).", "Heat your wok.", "Spray with cooking spray and some peanut oil in the wok (make sure you use enough oil or the pancake won't be crispy! I use about 2 tbsp).", "In the med-high temp wok, put all the pancake mixture into the wok and use the back of a big spoon, flatten the mixture on the wok.", "When you can start to smell the yummy pancake cake, flip and cook the other side until done (I never learn how to just ""toss"" the pancake, so I slide it on another plate and then flip it).", "Cut the pancake into finger-food size.", "Garnish with more cilantro.", "Mix the sauce and serve!"]
