Ingredients with Measurements:
- 1 cup mung beans, soaked overnight
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup rice flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/4 tsp pandan extract
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- Oil for frying
Special Equipment Needed:
- Non-stick pan

Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Drain the soaked mung beans and blend them with coconut milk and water until smooth.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, salt, turmeric powder, and pandan extract. Add the blended mung bean mixture and mix well.
3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the pan and swirl it around to make a thin crepe. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to curl up. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter.
4. In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar and water. Cook over low heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly.
5. To assemble, place a spoonful of the mung bean filling onto the center of each crepe. Fold the sides over the filling and roll up tightly.
6. Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Fry the rolls until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
