Flaky Scallion Pancake

A savory, flaky pancake filled with scallions. A popular street food in China, these pancakes are perfect as an appetizer or snack.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a large bowl, mix the flour and hot water until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, then cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
Divide the dough into four equal parts. Roll out one part into a thin circle.
Brush the dough with sesame oil, sprinkle with salt and scallions, then roll up into a log.
Coil the log into a round dough ball, then roll out again into a thin circle. Repeat with the remaining dough and scallions.
Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry each pancake until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
Cut the pancakes into wedges and serve hot.
