Golden layers of pan-fried dough filled with fresh scallions—your new favorite crunchy, chewy snack!
📝 Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup hot water
½ tsp salt
1 tsp sesame oil (for brushing)
½ cup chopped scallions (green onions)
¼ cup vegetable oil (for frying)
👩🍳 Directions:
1. Make the Dough:
In a mixing bowl, add flour and salt.
Slowly stir in hot water while mixing with a spoon or chopsticks.
Once cool enough, knead by hand until smooth (about 5–7 minutes).
Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
2. Shape the Pancakes:
Divide dough into 4 equal pieces.
Roll one piece into a thin rectangle.
Brush with a bit of sesame oil and sprinkle with chopped scallions.
Roll the dough up like a jelly roll, then coil it into a spiral.
Flatten gently with your hand, then roll into a 6–7 inch round pancake.
Repeat with remaining dough.
3. Pan-Fry to Perfection:
Heat 1–2 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Fry one pancake at a time, 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
Drain on paper towels and repeat with remaining pancakes.
4. Serve Hot:
Slice into wedges and serve with a dipping sauce of soy sauce, rice vinegar, and a touch of chili oil!
