Mandarin Pancakes - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 cup boiling water
    3 tablespoons sesame oil, about
Preparation
    In a mixing bowl put the flour, and gradually stir in the water, mixing to make a thin batter.
    When cool enough to handle, work the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth.
    Place the dough in a bowl, cover with a dish towel and let rest for 30 minutes.
    Place the sesame oil in a small bowl.
    Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll out to 1/4-inch thickness.
    Cut into rounds with a 3-inch cutter.
    With your fingers, daub a small amount of oil on top of 1 round.
    Place another round on top and press together.
    Roll the 2 rounds together to form a circle about 6 or 7-inches in diameter.
    Cover with a damp kitchen cloth until ready to cook, and repeat with the remaining dough.
    Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
    Cook 1 pancake at a time until barely golden and dry on both sides, turning once, about 1 minute.
    Remove from the pan, and when cool enough to handle, carefully separate the 2 pancakes.
    Wrap in foil until ready to use, or refrigerate.
    (To reheat, place in a steamer insert and steam, covered, for 5 minutes.).
