Moo Shu Pancakes

  • 280g all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 100g boiling water
  • 100g water
  • sesame oil

Mix flour and boiling water, and stir until it begins to come together.  Add in the rest of the water, stir, and knead into a dough.  Allow to rest for at least 1 hour (up to 2 hours is fine).  Cut into 8 equal size pieces.

Shape 2 pieces into balls.  Press flat.  Brush one side of each with sesame oil.  Place the oiled sides together.  Roll out to 8" circle.  Repeat with the other pieces.

In a nonstick pan over medium-low heat, place one set of doubled pancakes.  Allow to cook for about a minute, until bubbles start to form and there are brown spots on the bottom.  Flip and cook another minute.  

Transfer to a plate, wait about 90 seconds, and peel the 2 pancakes apart (being careful of the hot steam released).
