Instructions

  • We pour the kneading ingredients into the utensil first, and then slowly pour 160 g of warm water into the bowl and stir while pouring.
  • Then knead into dough, it doesn’t matter if it is not smooth. Let’s cover it with plastic wrap and let it relax for 15 minutes. The kneaded dough is soft and non-sticky. Different flours have different water absorption rates. If your kneaded dough is hard, you can add a little more water. If it is a little sticky, add a little flour.
  • After 15 minutes, you can easily knead the dough until it is smooth. After smoothing, continue to cover with plastic wrap and relax for 20 minutes.
  • During the dough relaxation, we will make the ingredients and cut the onions, garlic and chives into small pieces.
  • Then pour 3 spoons of red oil bean paste, 2 spoons of soybean paste, 2 spoons of chili sauce, 1 spoon of granulated sugar, a small spoon of spiced powder and half a bowl of water into the bowl and stir well.
  • Pour the right amount of cooking oil into the pan, chopped onion and garlic, stir-fry over medium and small heat.
  • Then pour the bowl of sauce into the pan, heat over medium heat and stir, and boil until bubbling, turn to low heat and boil slowly.
  • After boiling until the sauce is thick, pour in white sesame seeds and 1 spoon of oyster sauce, and cook on medium-high heat for about half a minute.
  • We pour the prepared sauce into a bowl and set aside. The amount of sauce made today is relatively large. If you can’t use it all at once, you can save it until the next time.
  • After the sauce is done, make the pastry portion, heat 30 grams of corn oil, and stir 30 grams of low-gluten flour evenly.
  • Then prepare the sprinkling portion. Pour 2 g of cumin powder, 2 g of pepper powder, 1 g black pepper and a little MSG into a bowl and mix well.
  • Spread a little flour on the kneading board to prevent sticking. Put the loose dough on the kneading board and roll it into a large sheet. It must be thin enough so that it will have more layers after rolling and the taste will be more natural. Warm reminder, if you are new to the operation for the first time, or if you don’t have a large enough pan at home, it is recommended to divide the dough into 2 to 3 portions and roll them into thin slices, which is easier to operate and improve the success rate.
  • Then spread the pastry evenly on the surface, be sure to spread it evenly, and then spread the sprinkles on the crust.
  • Then roll it up from the bottom up to be slightly tighter, squeeze the skin at the neck and the sides to prevent the pastry from leaking.
  • Roll up from left to right. After rolling, the tail end is stuffed at the bottom. Cover with plastic wrap and relax for 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, roll it into a thin sheet again, and roll it as thin as possible to make it taste good.
  • Pour an appropriate amount of oil into the pan, heat over medium heat, heat the oil slightly for a while, and then put the crust into the pan. If the crust is a bit too large to spread out, you can wrinkle it a little, This is okay, then fry with medium and small fire.
  • After the other side of the crust is browned, turn it over, then turn to low heat to fry. In the subsequent frying process, turn it several times until it is crispy on both sides.
  • Finally, brush the prepared sauce, sprinkle with green onions and some cooked white sesame seeds, and enjoy.
  • Chinese puff pastry pancake cut into small pieces, you can start to eat, crispy and multi-layered, the sauce is beautiful, the taste is cool when it is cold.
