Brush a thin layer of oil on the board, take out the rested dough, press and spread it flat on the board to about 1 cm thick. Next, spread the cooled oil paste evenly on top, roll up the dough while gently pressing backwards to make the skin thinner and layers better, roll into a log, and cut into 10 small pieces.

Watch out

The oil paste must be cooled before spreading on the dough, otherwise the hot oil will kill the yeast and prevent the dough from rising.

Roll and flatten the cut pieces with a rolling pin, fold the cut ends into thirds; fold again after rolling out, and fold into thirds once more. Then coat the smooth side with a layer of white sesame seeds, roll it to about half a palm size, and place it in the baking tray.

Watch out

Apply even pressure when folding into thirds, otherwise pressing too hard will squeeze out the oil paste and ruin the layers.
