Pancake Ingredients

Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the hot water, mixing with a fork or chopsticks until the dough begins to come together.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Roll Out the Dough

    Divide the rested dough into four equal portions. Take one portion and roll it out into a thin circle about 10 inches in diameter on a floured surface.

  4. 4

    Add Scallions

    Sprinkle about 1/4 cup of the chopped scallions evenly over the rolled-out dough. Roll the dough up tightly like a jelly roll, then coil it into a spiral shape. Flatten slightly with your hand.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Heat 1/4 cup of vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the pancake in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the remaining dough portions.
