Hand-Torn Pancake — ingredients and steps overview

Method6 steps

  1. 1

    Make the Half-Boiled-Water Dough

    半烫面制作

    Place the flour in a bowl, add boiling water and stir into a shaggy mass. Add cold water and knead into a smooth dough. Cover with a damp cloth and rest for 20 minutes.

    面粉放入碗中,加入开水搅拌成絮状,再加入冷水揉成光滑面团,覆盖湿布静置 20 分钟。

    25 min

    • Boiling water weakens the gluten, making the dough softer.开水烫面可以降低面筋韧性,使饼皮更软
    • The resting time must be sufficient.醒发时间必须充足
    Step 1: Make the Half-Boiled-Water Dough
  2. 2

    Portion and Roll Out

    下剂擀制

    Divide the dough into portions of about 100g each, roll into balls, and flatten into thin sheets.

    面团分成每份约 100 克,搓圆,擀成薄片。

    5 min

    • Try to roll to an even thickness.尽量擀得厚薄均匀

  3. 3

    Brush with Oil for Layers

    抹油起酥

    Brush the surface evenly with cooking oil, sprinkle with salt, and roll into a snail shape. Let it rest for 10 minutes.

    表面均匀涂抹食用油,撒上盐,卷成蜗牛状,松弛 10 分钟。

    15 min

    • Brush the oil evenly; this is key to creating layers.抹油要均匀,这是分层的关键
    Step 3: Brush with Oil for Layers
  4. 4

    Shape Again

    二次成型

    Roll the dough out again into a thin, evenly thick pancake.

    面团再次擀成薄饼,厚度均匀。

    3 min

    • Use a light touch so you don't flatten the layers.力度要轻,不要把层次压死
    Step 4: Shape Again
  5. 5

    Pan-Fry the Pancake

    煎制饼皮

    Heat a pan with oil and pan-fry on low heat until both sides are golden and bubbling.

    热锅中倒入油,小火煎至两面金黄起泡。

    5 min

    • While frying, gently press inward with a spatula to make the layers more distinct.煎的过程中可以用铲子轻轻向内挤压,使层次更明显

    Assemble the Final Dish

    组合成品

    Layer the fried pancake with fried egg, lettuce, ham, cheese slices, and other toppings, then roll up.

    煎好的饼依次铺入煎蛋、生菜、火腿、芝士片等配料,卷起即可。

    2 min

    • Keep the total weight of toppings under 100g.配料总重建议控制在 100 克以内
    Step 6: Assemble the Final Dish

Extra tips

  • Mixing boiling water and cold water when making the dough helps improve the dough's tenderness.使用开水与冷水混合和面,有助于提升饼皮柔韧度。
  • The dough should rest for at least 20 minutes; otherwise, it will be difficult to roll thin.面团醒发时间不宜少于 20 分钟,否则不易擀薄。
  • Adjust toppings to taste, but keep the total weight under 100g.可根据个人口味增减配料,建议配料总重控制在 100 克以内。
  • Leftover raw dough can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours. Bring to room temperature and roll flat before use.剩余生饼皮可冷藏保存 24 小时,使用时回温擀平即可。
