Precautions

1. Don't roll the dough too thin, otherwise it will easily affect the layers when you roll it later.

2. After kneading the dough, it is best to let it rise for a while before putting it into the pan, so that the pancake will be softer. I didn't have time to wake up before I went straight into the pot.

3. If you don’t add yeast powder to the flour, the cakes you make will be chewier. But it will look a bit dry.

4. If there are many people, you can make two pancakes, putting one in the pot as soon as the beans are put into the pot. The whole stewing process is enough time for two pancakes.
