Pancake Ingredients
Method
Pancake Directions
- 1
Make the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the boiling water while stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture begins to come together. Allow it to cool slightly, then knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 5 minutes.

Rest the Dough
Cover the kneaded dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 30 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax, making the pancakes easier to roll out.

Prepare the Filling
After resting, divide the dough into four equal pieces. Roll out each piece into a thin circle. Spread a thin layer of vegetable oil over the surface, then sprinkle a portion of the chopped scallions evenly over the oil. Roll the dough tightly into a log, then coil the log into a spiral and flatten it gently.

Cook the Pancakes
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Place one pancake in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the remaining pancakes, adding more oil as needed.
