Footage shows how a street food vendor prepares a Japan-inspired Thai snack called 'Khanom Tokyo.'

Firstly, the cook spreads thin rounds of pancake batter onto a hot pan with a spoon on the hot surface at his stall in Bangkok, Thailand

Once the dough has set, he then adds large dollops of corn or custard cream before scraping the dessert into a spring roll shape.

Though Khanom Tokyo is usually served sweet, there are also versions that come with savoury fillings like ground pork or sausages.

The snack is believed to have been sold for the first time in 1967 by a Japanese department store in Bangkok called Thai-Daimaru.

It is said to be a Thai adaptation of a similar dish in Japan called dorayaki, a type of pancake with a sweet, red bean filling.
