INSTRUCTIONS
SIFT THE FLOUR, SALT, PEPPER and 2 teaspoons of the sugar into a large
bowl. Make a well in the center and pour the eggs into it. Stir just
enough to combine the ingredients. In a medium skillet set over
moderate heat, stir-fry the pork, scallions, and two-thirds of the
garlic in the sesame oil for 8-to-10 minutes, until the pork is no
longer pink; do not brown the meat. Add the asparagus, toss for 1-or-2
minutes over moderate heat, then allow the mixture to cool to room
temperature. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients,
except the vegetable oil, to make a dipping sauce. When the pork
mixture is cool, stir it into the reserved batter. Heat the vegetable
oil in a large skillet over moderately high heat until ripples show on
the skillet bottom. Half fill a 1/4-cup measuring cup with the batter
and drop the batter into the hot oil, evening up the ragged edges of
the pancake. Add 3 more pancakes to the skillet, smoothing the edges
as before, and brown them for 1-to-1 1/2 minutes per side. Drain them
on paper towels, then keep them warm on an uncovered platter in a 250F
oven. Fry the rest of the pancakes, adding more vegetable oil to the
skillet if needed. Serve the pancakes hot with the dipping sauce.
