Scallion Pancake Recipe
Ingredients
☛¹/₂ cup hot water
☛3 scallions or spring onions (excluding the bulbs), chopped
☛peanut oil (or olive oil)
☛salt
Method
Put flour in a bowl, then slowly add the water in a steady stream. Continue to mix the flour and water while the water is being added, until it forms a ball of dough. Cover with a damp cloth and allow to sit for about thirty minutes.
Roll out the dough onto a floured surface, then brush with a small amount of oil. Cover the dough evenly with the scallions, then sprinkle a bit of salt over the entire thing. Carefully roll up the dough and scallions into a long cylinder. Once you have rolled it into a snake, tightly coil the roll like a cinnamon bun. This coil can now be rolled out into a fairly flat pancake. The pancake should be fried lightly on both sides until each side is a golden brown; this takes about five minutes per side.
