Prepare the batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the rice flour and mung bean flour. Gradually whisk in the coconut cream, egg whites, water, sugar, and salt until you have a smooth, thin batter, similar in consistency to heavy cream. Strain the batter through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps. Cover the bowl and let the batter rest at room temperature for at least 20 minutes to allow the flours to fully hydrate.

Prepare the toppings: If your shredded coconut is not already toasted, lightly toast it in a dry pan over medium-low heat until fragrant and lightly golden. Set aside. Gently separate the foi thong into smaller strands. Have all toppings ready for assembly.
â±ïž 5 minutes - 3
Heat and grease the griddle: Heat a non-stick crepe pan or a flat griddle over medium heat. The surface should be hot enough that a drop of water sizzles and evaporates quickly. Lightly grease the surface with vegetable oil using a paper towel or a pastry brush. Wipe off any excess oil.

Cook the crepes: Ladle about 2-3 tablespoons of batter onto the hot griddle. Immediately swirl the pan or use the back of the ladle to spread the batter into a very thin, even circle, about 6-8 inches in diameter. Cook for about 30-60 seconds, or until the edges start to lift and the crepe is lightly golden brown and looks dry on top. It should be very thin and delicate.

Add toppings and fold: Working quickly while the crepe is still on the griddle, sprinkle a small amount of foi thong and toasted shredded coconut onto one half of the crepe. Drizzle with sweetened condensed milk, if using. Carefully fold the crepe in half using a spatula, creating a half-moon shape. Gently slide the folded crepe onto a plate.

Serve immediately: Kanom Buang are best enjoyed immediately while they are still warm and crispy. Repeat steps 4 and 5 with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle lightly between crepes as needed. The total cooking time will depend on how many crepes you make and how quickly you work.

đĄ Proffstips
- âThe key to Kanom Buang is achieving a very thin and crispy crepe. Don't make the batter too thick, and ensure your griddle is sufficiently hot.
- âWork quickly when spreading the batter and adding toppings to ensure the crepe cooks evenly and remains crispy.
- âFor a savory version, omit the sugar from the batter and use savory fillings like seasoned minced shrimp or pork, and chopped scallions.
- âIf the crepes become soft, you can briefly reheat them on a dry pan or in a low oven (around 100°C/210°F) to re-crisp them, though they are best fresh.
