Cooking Steps
Step1:Pour 300 grams of flour into a large bowl. Add 145 grams of warm water. Stir with chopsticks to form floccules. Flour water absorption degree is different. The water amount is only for reference. The specific amount is as long as the dough is not hard and sticky.
Step2:After the dough is mixed, knead it into dough by hand. It's hard to knead it smooth at first. It's OK to knead it into dough first. After the dough is formed, cover with plastic wrap and put it aside for 10 minutes.
Step3:Put some oil into the pot and heat it. Put the broken eggs into the pot and fry until the eggs solidify. Then use chopsticks or shovels to break them up. Let the eggs become small pieces.
Step4:Wash the leeks and cut them into leeks. For filling, try to choose a little tender leek.
Step5:Put the chopped leeks and scrambled eggs into a large bowl. Add the chopped vermicelli. Soak the vermicelli in hot water in advance. Then add some dried shrimps. Pour some corn oil into the filling first. Stir well. Let corn oil lock the water in leek. Then leek filling will not be easy to come out of water. Then mix the taste. Add 2 tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tbsp of oyster sauce, 1 tbsp of salt, 1 tbsp of sugar, 5 powder and pepper. Stir well with chopsticks.
Step6:Put the wake-up dough on the chopping board. Do not knead it. Directly arrange the long strip by hand. Use a knife to divide it into evenly sized preparations. Take out one of the preparations and put it on the panel. Make a pancake with a rolling pin. The pancakes should be as thick as possible in the middle and thin on both sides. Spoon some stuffing on the dough. Try to put it in the middle of the dough. Leave more space under the dough.
Step7:Fold up the lower part of the face. First, roughly squeeze it. Then, squeeze it into the lace in the picture. The more wrinkles there are, the less easy it is to expose the stuffing and break the skin.
Step8:Heat the pan or electric pancake pan. Pour in the corn oil and brush well. Put the leek box in the pan. Bake slowly on a low heat. Wait until one side is finished. Then flip the other side. Until the color on both sides turns yellow, you can get out of the pan.
Step9:You can eat it when it's a little cold. It's more delicious when it's hot. Don't burn it to the mouth. The edge of the leek box made of pleated lace is very firm. Don't worry about the problem of exposed stuffing.
Cooking tips:1. Try to use warm water when mixing the dough. Warm water and dough are softer. Cold water and dough are not so soft. Hot water and dough are softer. But the ductility will get worse. The dough will not have good gluten. 2. If it is not easy to knead the dough, you can put it aside and wake up before kneading. After waking up, the dough is easier to knead. 3. When mixing the leek filling, you must put oil first, and then let loose the seasonings such as raw extract and salt. Salt will kill the water in the leek. Putting oil first can lock the water in the leek. It is not easy for the leek filling to come out of the water. 4. Make as many folds as possible when packing leek boxes. It's not easy to expose the stuffing when eating. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
