Servings: 4
Ingredients
- All-purpose flour
- 2 cups
- Water
- 3/4 cup
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
- Vegetable oil
- for frying
- Ground beef
- 1 pound
- Onion
- 1, finely chopped
- Garlic
- 2 cloves, minced
- Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons
- Sugar
- 1 tablespoon
- Vinegar
- 1 tablespoon
- Green onions
- 2, chopped

Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, water, and salt. Knead until a smooth and elastic dough forms, about 5-7 minutes.
- Divide the dough into small balls, approximately the size of a golf ball. Roll each ball out into thin circles, about 6 inches in diameter.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat, ensuring there is enough oil to fully submerge the dough.
- Fry the dough circles, one or two at a time, until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
- In the same pan, add the ground beef, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, chopped green onions, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Serve the fried dough circles warm, topped with the savory beef mixture. You can also serve them with extra soy sauce on the side for dipping.
