Blanch squid, mussels and shrimp in a pot of boiling water and drain. Put eggs, all-purpose flour, and sweet rice flour in a bowl and whisk together. Add prepared squid, mussles, shrimp, and crabmeat, and mix in. Add about 2 tbsp of vegetable oil on a heated large nonstick frying pan. Bundle the scallions and spread them on the pan to a width of about 9-inches (some will stack on top of each other). Let it cook over high heat for about 1 minute and then pour the batter on top. Turn the temperature down to medium-high and cook for about 5 minutes with the lid closed. Add one tbsp of vegetable oil to the batter and then use two spatulas to flip the pancake. Continue to cook another 4-5 minutes with the lid removed. Add more vegetable oil if necessary. Cook until the pancake is fully cooked or golden brown on both sides.
