Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a pot, add 500 to 600 ml water, 100 ml sunflower oil, and 1 tbsp salt.
- 2
When the water is hard boiling, add the flour gradually and continuously stir.
- 3
Continue with stirring in order so you don't have any pockets of flours.
- 4
Pour the mixture on a floured surface and let it cool down a bit.
- 5
Check if the dough has cooled down a bit and it is not as hot and start kneading it for about 5 minutes.
- 6
Cut it into 10 pieces, knead them, and roll them until you create dough balls.
- 7
Roll each ball into a medium disk and put it in a baking pan and brush it with sunflower oil
- 8
Repeat the same process with the rest of the dough balls and layer them on top of each other.
- 9
Once it's done, press the dough layers until they all open up to a big dough circle on the baking pan and brush it with some oil.
- 10
Cut them into mini cubes and put them to bake for 1 h at 250 °C, after one hour if it's golden brown on top, lower the temperature to 200°C and leave it for another 15 to 30 minutes

After baking it, serve it with some feta cheese, some tomatoes, or fresh onions.

Tender & Spongy, Chrysanthemum Greens Taiwanese Shrimp Omelette Tender & Spongy, Chrysanthemum Greens Taiwanese Shrimp Omelette
A standard dish found in Taiwanese food stalls! Oysters are well known, but shrimp is also very popular! My husband doesn't like oysters, so I tried the shrimp version! It fills you up, but my family loves this.Be sure to cook the outside until it's golden brown and crispy! The outside will be crispy and the inside tender! Very delicious!Pour in and mix the starch mixture carefully to avoid forming lumps. Recipe by Mizorecchifan
