Step 1
First chop the beef into minced meat. If you have a meat grinder at home, you can save a little effort.Step 2
Then chop the onions and green onions into fine pieces and put them into the meat.Step 3
To make onion and ginger water, just soak the onion and ginger for 10 minutes in advance. Add the onion and ginger water little by little, stirring clockwise while adding. Be sure to stir in one direction, otherwise the meat filling will taste very hard.Step 4
Mix the meat filling well and refrigerate until ready to useStep 5
Now let's knead the dough. Pour all the dough ingredients into the basin together until the dough is smooth. Then let it rest for 15-20 minutes. The rested dough will be softer and more delicate. After the dough has risen, divide the dough into two partsStep 6
First take one part and cover it with plastic wrap and put it in a basin. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a rectangle of about 30 to 40 cm. The thickness should be even and the roll should be as thin as possible. Also pay attention to dusting the bottom of the dough with hand flour to prevent Glued to the panel. Then the key point comes. Cut the dough four times with a knife as shown in the picture, but be careful not to cut it in the middle. This will make it look like the dough has been divided into 6 parts.Step 7
Then we spread the prepared meat filling evenly on five pieces of the dough. Do not add filling to the piece in the upper right corner.Step 8
After the filling is evenly spread, first cover the piece of dough without the filling, and then pinch the edges of the dough tightly to prevent the filling from leaking out.Step 9
The next step is to turn the piece with the sealed edge 180 degrees to the left, cover it with the left piece, and seal the edge of the dough again.Step 10
At this time, we must fully complete the first and second steps in sequence.Step 11
Fold the remaining dough at once. The folded dough will be one layer of dough and one layer of fillings, a total of 6 layers of dough and 5 layers of meat fillings.Step 12
Remember to seal the dough, and try to make the seal as thin as possible to prevent the pie from being cooked because the seal is too thick when baking.Step 13
The next step is to fry the patties. It is best to find a non-stick pan with a little more oil. When the oil is 50% hot, put the patties into the pan. During the process of frying the patties, turn down the heat all the way and fry until golden brown on one side. Fry the other side in the opposite direction. Remember to cover the pan the whole time except when turning the pie over. Because this thousand-feuille pie is thicker, it will cook faster if the pan is covered.Step 14
In addition, because the pie crust is relatively thin, you need to be gentle when turning it over to avoid breaking the crust.Step 15
The fried pie can be divided into two pieces with a knife in the middle, or it can be divided into four pieces with a cross knife. Northerners generally like to eat it hot right out of the pan. The pie crust is crispy and crispy, and the filling is tender and juicy. But don’t cut it. My mouth is so hot! A Chaoshan friend of mine doesn’t quite understand why northerners always like to eat it while it’s hot. One is due to personal eating habits, and the other is that if you don’t eat many delicacies while they’re hot, the skin will no longer be crispy and will become soft, and the soup may solidify, making it taste less delicious. It tastes delicious fresh out of the pan, but this eating habit really varies from person to person. Some people like to eat cold food, while others like to eat hot food.
