Notes

*Since egg size can vary greatly, this doesn't have to be strictly followed. If large eggs, you could use 6-8 egg whites, if extra-large, you may want to use 6.
**You can replace the water with a light broth for extra flavor.
***Cooking time may vary; especially powerful microwaves may fully cook the mandarin pancake in only 90 seconds.
****If the finished pancake doesn't release easily from the mat, you can try loosening it with a thin spatula.
