I love jian bing (also known as Chinese-style crêpes), but they’re not the easiest to make in a home kitchen. So here’s a cheat’s/inspired version of this iconic Chinese street food breakfast using frozen paratha and Mama Yu’s Chilli Oil. This idea was inspired by the one and only J. Kenji López-Alt.
