Heat a small amount of coconut oil in a hopper pan over medium heat.

Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan, swirling to coat the sides.

Crack an egg into the center of the batter if desired.

Cover the pan and cook until the edges are crispy and the center is cooked, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove from the pan and serve hot with sambol or curry.
