  1. Put flour in a mixing bowl. Add the water in little by little, stir in-between.  When all the water is added in, add 1 tsp oil in the flour mix. Start to knead the flour into dough.
  2. When the dough becomes smooth, cover it with another bowl or a cover. Leave it for 20min.
  3. Clean shallots and chop them into small pieces. The finer the better. 
  4. After 20min, take the dough out from the mixing bowl. Knead the dough for 1min and shape it into a long loaf and cut evenly into 4 parts. 
  5. take one part. Sprinkle some dry flour on the table. Knead gently for few seconds. Use rolling pin to roll it into a large sheet. 
  6. Spread ½ tsp salt on the dough sheet. Press the salt into the dough with rolling pin. 
  7. Spread 1 tbp oil on the surface of the dough. You can use a brush or by folding the edges of the dough sheet into the centre, then opening it. 
  8. Spread chopped shallots on the top of the sheet.
  9. Lift the edge of the sheet that is close to you and make a roll. The shallots and oil are rolled inside. 
  10. Hold one end of the roll and coil the roll into a circle shape.
  11. Use hand to press it down. Then use the rolling pin gently to roll it into a flatter piece. 
  12. Spread the oil in a flat pan. Not too much oil. Just cover the bottom of the pan. Turn the heat to high.
  13. Place the pressed dough in the pan. When one side turns slightly golden colour, flip over. When both sides become light golden colour, brush some oil on both top and bottom surfaces. 
  14. Turn the heat into medium. When the pancake becomes golden colour, it is ready.
