Process 
Red means kids can do these steps.

  1. Mix flour with water, knead till the dough becomes one ball and there is no loose flour, [wash hands]. Adults may need a final check.
  2. Let the dough sit in a covered container for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  3. Combine meat, onion, salt, sugar, soy sauce. Mix.
  4. Put plastic wraps on the working surface to reduce the messiness. Spread flour on the plastic wrap so that the dough does not stick. Take the dough out carefully - it is sticky. Cut the dough into two, and roll into two balls.
  5. Use a rolling pin to flatten the dough into a sheet in the shape of a square or a circle. If the dough gets sticky, just spread flour. Adults may help.
  6. Cut the sheet, spread half of the meat on 3/4 of the sheet, fold. Press to seal the edges.
    Adults may need a final check.




  7. Use the rolling pin to flatten the pancake to less than half an inch think. Be gentle so that you don't squeeze the meat out.
  8. Put 1 tablespoon of oil in a non-stick frying pan, turn on medium flame. When pan is hot, put pancake in, place the lid on.  Fry for 4-5 minutes till bottom side golden brown. Flip, fry in pan uncovered for another 4-5 minutes till the other side is also golden brown.
  9. Repeat steps 5-7 to make another one.
  10. Decorate with broccoli, and carrots. Sometimes, carrots need to be cut into strings or other shapes, depending on the kid's needs.
