  • Whisk cold water, egg, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add flour in 3 batches, mixing well after each addition. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • Heat a wok over high heat. Remove from the heat and thinly coat with 1 tablespoon peanut oil. Return to the heat and reduce the temperature to low.
