Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
  • ¾ cup (180ml) hot water, freshly boiled
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) cold water
  • 1 teaspoon (5ml) salt
  • 4 tablespoons (60ml) vegetable oil, divided
  • 4 cups (approx. 4 bunches) (300g) green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon (5g) salt
  • ½ teaspoon (2.5g) ground white pepper

Instructions:

  1. Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Gradually add hot water, mixing until a shaggy dough forms. Add cold water and knead until smooth. Cover and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
  2. While the dough rests, combine green onions, sesame oil, salt, and white pepper in a bowl. Mix well.
  3. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions.
  4. On a lightly floured surface, roll one portion of dough into a thin circle (approx. 10-12 inches). Brush with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Spread a quarter of the green onion filling evenly over the dough.
  5. Roll the dough tightly into a log. Then, coil the log into a snail shape. Tuck the end under the coil.
  6. Gently flatten the coil with your hand. Roll it out again into a circle, about 6-8 inches in diameter.
  7. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the green onion pancake for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Repeat steps 4-7 with the remaining dough and filling.
  9. Serve hot, cut into wedges.
