Quick Breakfast Stuffed Flatbread

Cooking StepsHow to cook Quick Breakfast Stuffed Flatbread step by step

Cooking Process

1. 
   Step 1 Detail

   Weigh the flour, then mix it with the measured water and salt.

2. 
   Step 2 Detail

   Pour into a bowl and stir in one direction with chopsticks until no dry flour remains (using four chopsticks held together makes stirring faster).

   Step 3 Detail

   Transfer back to a small bowl and refrigerate for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. The dough will become very smooth and fine! (If making for the next morning, you can skip the stirring — just refrigerate overnight and the texture will be nearly the same.)

   Step 4 Detail

   Drizzle a little oil over the surface to seal, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate. Fill the next morning.

   Step 5 Detail

   I used leftover dumpling filling, added some chives, and called it a filling! Chives don’t need extra salt since the meat filling is already seasoned. Check my previous steamed bun recipe for a dedicated filling recipe if you need one.

   Step 6 Detail

   Generously flour your work surface. Scoop a portion of dough with a spoon and place it on the floured surface. Flour your hands and press the dough flat.

   Step 7 Detail

   Spoon the filling onto the dough, fold the edges toward the center, then gather and shape into a ball.

8. 
   Step 8 Detail

   Heat a pan with a little oil. Place the filled dough seam-side down, then use your fist to press it flat and thin. Don’t worry about making it perfectly round.

   Step 9 Detail

   Cook over medium-low heat, about 1 minute per side before flipping. When the flatbread puffs up, it’s done!
