Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to gas mark 6 and brush a non-stick baking tray with some of the sesame oil.
  2. Add the gluten flour, yeast flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, 5 spice, and chilli flakes to a bowl.
  3. Dissolve the bouillon in the hot water. Add two tbsp peanut butter and the soya sauce and stir until you have a smooth sauce.
  4. Pour the hot liquid into the dry ingredients and stir to combine to form a soft dough. Knead gently for a couple of minutes, ensuring that all the flour has been incorporated.
