If you don't have a stand up mixer you can also use a regular mixer with a dough attachment. If you have neither, you can skip this step. Im sure the meal will still be delicious.

Before we start, make sure the vent hood is on. This process tends to make a lot of smoke and your fire alarm will go off if it is sensitive like mine. Lets start cooking

If you don't have a stovetop griddle an electric griddle will do wonders for this process, just bring it up to 500 degrees and follow my instructions.

Take a large griddle, hopefully cast iron. Get it real hot, I mean smoking hot.
