Ingredients

• All-purpose flour - 200 grams
• Warm water - 100 ml
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Vegetable oil - 1 tablespoon (for dough)
• Tofu - 150 grams, crumbled
• Carrot - 1 medium, finely diced
• Bell pepper - 1 medium, finely diced
• Green onion - 2, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Ginger - 1 teaspoon, minced
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Sesame oil - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Cilantro - a handful, chopped (for garnish)

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix the flour, warm water, and salt to form a dough. Knead for about 5 minutes until smooth, then cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.
2. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Add the crumbled tofu, diced carrot, and bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
4. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir in chopped green onions and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
5. Divide the rested dough into two equal portions and roll each into a ball. Flatten each ball into a disc (about 1 cm thick).
6. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each disc for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Once the bread is done, fill each disc with the vegetable mixture. Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
