I never made this type of flat bread before. I was talking with a friend about some local food in China, and they use pocketed flat bread. I decided to google online to find out how to make them.

Methods:

1. Mix flour with cold water, form a solid but soft ball, set aside for a while, punch the dough again, then separate dough into several even pieces.

3. Roll each pieces into a flat thin sheet, then spread with filling batter, leave edge unspreaded.
