Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup sliced scallions
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup ginger dipping sauce, recipe to follow

Directions

In a bowl, sift flour. Slowly add water in a steady stream while mixing with a wooden spoon. Keep adding water until a ball is formed. With the same procedure, one can use a food processor with a metal blade. Let ball of dough >relax for about 30 minutes and cover with damp cloth.

On a floured surface, roll out dough into a thin rectangle. Brush on oil mixture, cover with scallion and season with salt and pepper. Carefully roll dough like a sponge cake. Cut into 4 pieces. Take one piece and twist 3 times. Make a spiral out of this and roll again and flatten to achieve a 5 to 6 inch pancake. In a hot non-stick pan, coat with canola oil and pan sear both sides until golden brown. Cut into wedges and serve immediately with dipping sauce.

GINGER DIPPING SAUCE:

  • 1/4 cup thin soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup Chinese chinkiang vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sliced scallions
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon sugar

Combine all ingredients.

    I put this somewhere between okay and great. I really, really liked it and couldn't believe I could make this at home.

    This is one of my favorite dishes to order at chinese restaurants. In fact about a week after I made these, I went to a chinese restaurant and thought these were MUCH better then theirs. I think that's pretty hard to pull off!

    Great recipe. While making them, I also put a good amount of salt on the pancakes because that's how I remembered them and it really did help to bring out the flavor.

    I followed Trish's recipe listed below except with vegetable oil and it was excellent!

    The sesame oil over powers the scallions. It doesn't taste like an authentic Chinese scallion pancake.
