sesame oil

🥗Healthier: peanut oil

Peanut oil has a high smoke point and good flavor.

Mix all-purpose flour and water in a bowl until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Chop scallions finely and mix with salt and white pepper in a small bowl.

Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each into a thin circle.

Brush the surface of each circle with vegetable oil and sprinkle with the scallion mixture.

Roll the circle into a log, then coil it into a spiral shape.

Flatten the spiral gently with your palm and roll it out again into a flat disc.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil.

Cook each flatbread for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

Remove from the skillet and brush with sesame oil before serving.
