Ingredients

  • 300ml water, room temperature
  • 2 cups rice, leftover and cooked
  • 1 teaspoon instant dry yeast
  • 4 cups all purpose flour
  • 30g salt
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1 cup chives
  • Sesame seeds, optional

Directions

  1. Bloom yeast with water and rice (about five minutes). In a bowl, add flour, salt, and rice mixture then knead for three to five minutes. Once a ball of dough is formed, add oil and continue to knead until fully incorporated. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
  2. Dust flour onto your table or cutting board and begin to roll out the dough into a rectangular shape using a rolling pin.
  3. Once rolled thin, sprinkle your scallions and any additional ingredients you’d like to include.
  4. Begin rolling upwards from the bottom as if you are making cinnamon buns and form the dough into a log.
  5. Cut the log into one-inch pieces and press flat.
  6. Preheat your skillet to medium heat and add two teaspoons of oil. Begin frying two to three pieces at a time, cooking them for about three minutes on each side.
  7. Enjoy your leftover rice with a twist and create a brand-new experience! Serve with a spicy hoisin sauce or even a vegan nuoc cham sauce or even sprinkle a little cheese on top. Enjoy! 

TIP: Use a non-stick skillet to avoid any sticky messes. After this dough is made, it can be kept refrigerated and cooked the following day.
