【Pan Fried Scallion Flatbread】
by MaomaoMom

This is one of my family favorite pan fried flatbread, soft inside and crunchy outside. It tastes as delicious as the Italy focaccia bread.

The dough can be sticky at the moment. Add 1 tsp corn oil and knead for a minute to form a smooth dough (Picture 3). Cover with a damp cloth and set aside in a warm place until it doubles in volume (Picture 4).

Press down and roll out into a flatter circle about 20-cm in diameter. Scatter 1/2 tsp salt, 1/6 tsp chicken broth mix and drizzle 2 tsp sesame oil. Fold the flatter dough a few times to coat evenly (Picture 7).

4: Scatter chopped green onion and pork floss on top (Picture 8). Roll it up to form a log (Picture 9). Pinch to seal at each end , and coil up to form a disc (Picture 10). Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 5 minutes.
