Step 1
Whisk together flour, cornstarch, and salt in a large bowl.
Step 2
Gradually add water, whisking until smooth. Let batter rest for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Heat a 10-inch non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface.
Step 4
Pour 0.5 cup batter into the center and immediately tilt the pan in circular motions to spread into a thin, even crepe.
Step 5
Cook for 1-2 minutes until the bottom is light golden, then crack an egg onto the crepe and spread it out with a spatula.
Step 6
Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the egg is set but still slightly runny in places.
Step 7
Spread 1.5 tbsp hoisin sauce and 0.5 tbsp sriracha across the crepe.
Step 8
Sprinkle crispy wonton strips and scallions in the center.
Step 9
Fold the crepe in half or roll it up. Drizzle with sesame oil and slide onto a plate.
Step 10
Repeat with remaining batter and fillings to make one more crepe.
