Savory donkey burger from Hebei features tender braised meat in a crispy flatbread. A high protein, carnivore-friendly family street food with unique flavor.
Combine flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Gradually add warm water and knead until smooth. Cover and rest dough for 30 minutes.
Trim donkey meat and place in a pot with water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat for 3 minutes, then discard water and rinse meat.
Return meat to a clean pot. Add soy sauce, shaoxing wine, star anise, ginger, sugar, salt, black pepper, and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce to low heat. Braise for 2 hours until tender.
Divide rested dough into 4 portions. Flatten each into a disc about 5 inches wide. Heat a skillet and add 1 tbsp cooking oil. Fry each flatbread over medium heat 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
Shred braised donkey meat. Slice each flatbread open (do not cut through), stuff with donkey meat, sliced scallions, and chopped cilantro. Serve hot.
