Directions

  1. Combine flour, water, 1 teaspoon oil, and salt in a large bowl. Knead until well combined. Cover and set aside until dough is soft but not wet and sticky, 10 to 15 minutes. Add more flour if needed.

  2. Divide dough into 8 pieces. Roll each piece into an 8-inch-long strip about 2 inches thick.

  3. Sprinkle the dough with green onions and sesame oil. Roll each strip into a spiral, pinching the end to prevent unrolling.

  4. Flatten each spiral with a rolling pin to create a disk-shaped pancake about 5 inches wide.

  5. Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Fry each scallion pancake until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side.

Recipe Yield

8 scallion pancakes

Recipe Note

An easy and most delicious breakfast, brunch, or snack. This is a kid-friendly meal your family will love, too. My 6-year-old will vouch for me. Make this special by using organic flour, organic green onions, sea salt, and filtered water.
