Step 1
Whisk flour, water, and salt until smooth. Let rest 10 minutes.
Step 2
Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon, about 5 minutes. Drain excess fat.
Step 3
Crack eggs into a bowl. Whisk until yolks and whites blend. Stir in cooked beef and green onions.
Step 4
Heat 1.5 tbsp oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers.
Step 5
Pour half the batter into the skillet, tilting to spread into a thin, even round.
Step 6
Cook 2 minutes until the bottom sets and edges look dry. Pour half the egg filling onto one half.
Step 7
Fold the unfilled half over the filling, creating a half-moon shape.
Step 8
Cook 2–3 minutes until the outside is golden brown and edges crisp, then flip carefully.
Step 9
Cook the flipped side 2 minutes until golden. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining batter and filling.
Step 10
Serve hot, optionally with sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) for dipping.
