Roll, coil, flatten(40 min)

Knead flour + boiling water into dough, rest 30 min. Roll into a thin rectangle, brush with sesame oil, scatter scallions and salt. Roll up like a jelly roll, then coil into a spiral. Flatten into a pancake. Pan-fry in oil 3-4 min per side until golden and crispy.

Pro Tips for Western Kitchens

Smash the cooked pancake with your spatula to separate the layers. This creates those flaky, crispy shards you see in restaurant versions.
