Cut into four pieces, roll each tight into a round, flatten and roll to a four to five inch circle.

Cooking the bread in a covered skillet
Cook each bread covered about one minute per side, flipping twice, five to six minutes total until above 200F inside with no grey raw spots.

Slice the scallion, red onion and chili; grate the garlic and ginger.

  • 12 g ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp Thai dry red chili powder
Grind the cumin seeds in a mortar and pestle.
