::Mandarin Pancakes

Dough:
*2.5 c. flour
*0.75 c. boiling water
*1 egg or 0.25 c. cold water
*1 T. sesame oil

Method:

1. Dough: In a bowl, add boiling water to flour and mix. Add egg or cold water; mix again until smooth. Set aside for 20 minutes. Remove the dough and knead it on a lightly oiled surface until smooth and elastic. Roll the dough to form a long roll and cut it into 20 pieces. 2. Flatten each piece of dough with the palm of the hand into a 4 - inch round piece; spread lightly with sesame oil. Place two pieces of dough on top of each other. Press the round dough pieces together. Roll them out to a 6-inch, thin round dough. Follow step for the remaining pieces of dough. 3. Heat the pan until medium hot; fry the pieces of dough over low heat for about 20 seconds or until small, golden bubbles appear on fried side. While frying, use finger tips to constantly rotate pancakes in a clockwise direction to fry evenly. Turn pancake over and repeat procedure. Remove and separate the pancakes; fold them into quarters and arrange them on a serving plate. Cover with a damp cloth to keep them warm and moist.
