- One
of my favorite things to make. Many
recipes for this exist but this one works best for me.
The dough is very very stiff.
-
- Cold
dough
-
- 1
cup flour
- 2
tsp. baking powder
- 1/3
cup cold water
-
- Hot
dough
-
- 1
cup flour
- 1
tsp. salt
- 1/3
cup boiling water
-
- 1
1/2 Tbs. fat (suggested: bacon
grease, chicken fat or virgin olive oil)
- 2-3
scallions chopped.
- A
few tablespoons of oil for frying
-
- In
food processor knead each dough until it forms a ball, then gets
earlobe soft. Mix doughs
together. Rest dough 30
minutes to 2 hours. Roll
into large circle 1/8" thick.
Spead fat and scallions over surface and roll up into tight
roll. Make a spiral of
the roll. Rest for
another 10-15 minutes. Roll
spiral as flat as possible without spitting open, usually about
1" thick. Fry in
covered heavy pan with a little oil until beginning to crisp and turn
color; flip and cook other side until beginning to turn color.
Drain on paper towel. To
serve cut in wedge shaped slices.
