Prep Time

15 minutes

Cook Time

15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Rolling pin
  • Frying pan

Method

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and boiling water. Mix until a dough forms.
  2. Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  3. Divide the dough into 8-10 equal pieces and roll them into balls.
  4. Flatten each ball with a rolling pin to create a thin pancake.
  5. Brush one side of each pancake with vegetable oil.
  6. Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat.
  7. Cook the pancake, oil-side down, for 1-2 minutes until it starts to bubble.
  8. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until both sides are golden brown.
  9. Repeat with the remaining pancakes.

Notes

If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a large, heavy glass or bottle to flatten the dough. Make sure to brush the pancakes with oil before cooking to prevent them from sticking to the pan.
