CHINESE GREEN ONION PANCAKES RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Combine 2 cups flour and 1 cup boiling water in a bowl. Stir with chopsticks until cool enough to handle. Massage with your hands until the mixture becomes a dough. Transfer to a flour-dusted work surface and knead for 5 minutes. Return dough to the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Return dough to a flour-dusted work surface. Shape into a rectangular loaf shape. Cut the dough into 4 equal-sized pieces; return 3 pieces to the refrigerator.
• Roll 1 piece of dough out into a 10-inch circle using a rolling pin. Spread 4 teaspoons oil on the surface. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 the green onions. Roll circle up into a scroll shape. Roll the scroll sideways into a cinnamon-roll shape. Press down on the roll using the rolling pin to gently flatten it into a 7-inch pancake. Repeat with the remaining dough and oil.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a wok over medium heat. Transfer the pancake to the hot wok; flip after 30 seconds. Flip again every 1 to 2 minutes until both side are golden, 3 to 5 minutes total. Cook the remaining 3 pancakes, adding 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet each time.

Steps:

• Mix flour and 1 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl; pour in boiling water and quickly mix together until water is absorbed. Work cold water, about 1 tablespoon at a time, into flour mixture just until dough forms. Knead dough for 10 minutes. Cover bowl with a damp cloth and let dough rest for 40 minutes.
• Turn dough onto a lightly floured work surface; divide into 4 equal pieces.
• Roll 1 piece of dough into a large thin round; brush the top with vegetable oil and sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 the green onions. Pick up 1 end of the round and roll dough around green onions into a long scroll-shape. Take 1 scroll end and roll dough into a disk. Repeat with remaining dough, letting each disk rest for 10 minutes.
• Heat about 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Place 1 disk on a floured surface and roll into a 1/2-inch thick round; cook in the hot oil until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining disks.
