I love this recipe.  First start with the Mandarin pancakes.

100_6175Mandarin Pancakes (for 16 pancakes)
• 160 gr. flour flour
• 90 gr. cup boiling water
•  dash salt
• 2 TBSP veg oil

In a mixing bowl put the flour and gradually stir in the water, mixing to make a thin batter.  Work the dough until smooth.  Place the dough in a bowl, cover with a dish towel and let rest for 30 minutes.  Place your finger in the center and create a donut.  Roll out to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into 1/2 inch rounds.  Brush a small amount of oil on top of 1 round.  Place another round on top and press together.  Continue this process and stack 8 rounds.  Roll the rounds together to form a circle about 6 or 7 inches in diameter. Heat a large pan with water and place a bamboo steamer in it and steam the pancakes 15 minutes over medium heat.  Pull pancakes apart and again stack.  Place a 6″ bowl over the center of the stack and with a knife cut perfectly round pancakes.  Store pancakes in a zip lock bag until ready for use.  Here is a video on how to make pancakes:
