Servings: 4

Prep Time: 30 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Hot water
  • 1 bunch Scallions
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 50 ml Vegetable oil

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, mix flour with salt. Stir in the hot water until a dough forms. Let it rest for about 10 minutes.
  2. Chop the scallions finely.
  3. Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each into a ball, then flatten using a rolling pin into a pancake shape.
  4. Brush the pancake with oil and sprinkle the chopped scallions over it. Roll the pancake into a log, then curl it into a snail shape.
  5. Using the rolling pin, flatten the snail-shaped dough again into a pancake. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and scallions.
  6. Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry each pancake for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
  7. Slice the scallion pancakes into quarters and serve immediately for a delicious and authentic Chinese breakfast!
