Tips:
Adding lard will make it more crispy and taste better. If there is no lard, you can directly replace it with the same amount of salad oil. I use corn oil, as long as the salad oil is odorless.
Different brands of flour have different absorbency, so please adjust according to the actual situation. If you think the dough is relatively dry, you can add some egg liquid.
You can reshape according to your preference, and the size of each piece can be adjusted by yourself. I used a 28*28cm non-stick baking pan to bake 20 pieces.
