Green Onion Pancake
Green Onion Pancake is a delicious, savory dish made from a simple dough infused with green onions. It’s a popular snack or side dish in many Asian cuisines, especially in China and Taiwan. The dough is rolled thin, brushed with oil, sprinkled with chopped green onions, and then folded over and pan-fried until crispy and golden brown. It’s often served with a flavorful dipping sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 cup green onions chopped (scallions)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and warm water. Mix until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Shape the dough into a ball and let it rest for about 30 minutes, covered with a damp cloth.
- After the dough has rested, divide it into 4 equal portions.
- Take one portion and roll it into a thin circle, approximately 8-10 inches in diameter.
- Brush the surface of the rolled-out dough with vegetable oil.
- Sprinkle a handful of chopped green onions evenly over the oiled surface.
- Roll the dough up tightly, like a jelly roll, into a long cylinder shape.
- Coil the cylinder into a spiral shape, tucking the end underneath.
- Repeat steps 5-9 with the remaining dough portions.
- Take one coiled dough and flatten it gently with your palm.
- Roll it out again into a circle, approximately 6-8 inches in diameter.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and brush it with a little vegetable oil.
- Place the rolled-out dough in the pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown.
- Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the other side is golden brown as well.
- Remove the pancake from the pan and cut it into wedges or squares.
- Repeat steps 13-16 with the remaining coiled dough.
- Serve the Green Onion Pancakes hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as soy sauce or a chili garlic sauce.
