Mandarin Pancakes

2 cups flour 3/4 cup boiling water 2 tablespoons sesame oil
1. Place flour in a bowl. Add boiling water, stirring with chopsticks or a  fork until dough is evenly moistened. On a lightly floured board, knead  dough until smooth and satiny, about 5 minutes. Cover and let rest for 30  minutes. 2. On a lightly floured board, roll dough into a cylinder; cut into 16 equal  pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten slightly into a pancake.  Brush top of each pancake with a light coating of sesame oil. 3. Place 1 pancake on top of a second pancake, oiled sides together. With a  rolling pin, roll to make a circle 6 inches in diameter. Stack and roll  remaining pairs of pancakes the same way. Cover with a damp cloth to  prevent drying.
    Cooking:  1. Place a nonstick frying pan over lm heat until hot. Add 1 pair of pancakes   and cook, turning once, until lightly browned and bubbles appear on the   surface, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from pan and separate   into 2 pancakes while still hot. Stack cooked pancakes on a plate while   cooking remaining pairs of pancakes.  2. Serve pancakes hot. If making ahead, reheat pancakes in a microwave  oven or wrap in a clean dish towel and steam in a bamboo steamer for  5 minutes.
