1

Slice 250 grams of onions thinly and spread them out in the sun for about 15 minutes to dry out.

2

Pour 500 ml of cooking oil into a pot, add a pinch of salt and a few drops of lemon juice, and heat until boiling.

3

Add a handful of onions to the boiling oil and fry over medium heat, stirring when the edges start to turn light golden.

4

When the onions turn light brown, stir thoroughly and remove them from the oil to drain and dry.

5

Repeat the frying process with the remaining onions until all are cooked.

6

In a large bowl, add 200 grams of rice flour, 25 grams of potato starch or corn starch, and 50 grams of tapioca starch, then sift together.

7

Pour 400 ml of water into the flour mixture, adding 200 ml first and stirring until slightly thickened.

8

Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to the mixture and stir well, then gradually add the remaining water and mix thoroughly.

9

In a pot, pour 425 ml of water, add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and bring to a boil, then turn off the heat.

10

Stir the batter again and gradually pour the hot water into the flour mixture while stirring continuously.

11

Bring 200 ml of water to a boil in a non-stick pan and prepare a round mold lined with aluminum foil coated with cooking oil.

12

Pour a drop of the batter into the pan to check if it's hot enough; if it falls off, heat further.

13

Apply a thin layer of oil to the baking paper in the mold, then pour a ladle of the batter into the pan, counting from 1 to 3 before pouring off the excess.

14

Cover with baking paper filled with oil and cook over medium heat for 30 seconds before removing.

15

Use a paper towel to clean the pan and repeat the process until finished, ensuring the sheets are thin, soft, and smooth.

16

Add fillings such as fried onion, meat, or shrimp as desired before serving.
