2023 Food Box #5 - Green Onion Pancakes Recipe

From: All Recipes- https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/260521/green-onion-pancake/ Ingredients: For the Pancakes:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting work surface

• 1 cup boiling water

• Up to 1/4 cup toasted sesame seed oil

• 2 cups thinly sliced scallions (green onions)

For the Dipping Sauce:

• 2 tablespoons soy sauce

• 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

• 1 tablespoon finely sliced scallion greens

• 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

• 2 teaspoons sugar

To Cook:

• 1/4 cup vegetable oil

• Kosher salt

Prep Time: 1 hour Directions:

1. Place flour in a bowl. Add hot water slowly in a steady stream, mixing well after each addition. Add cold water; mix until no dry spots remain. Knead dough lightly by hand until a ball is formed. Place dough in an oiled resealable plastic bag; seal the bag and let dough rest for 30 minutes.

2. Place green onions in a bowl; season with salt and pepper.

3. Roll dough out onto a floured work surface into a thin rectangle using a rolling pin. Spread butter all over; sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. Spread scallions over the dough, leaving top edge of the dough empty. Roll dough up carefully from the opposite edge, keeping scallions in place and pulling dough a little with every roll to make it tight.

4. Cut the roll into 3- to 4-inch-long pieces by hand; pinch and seal both ends. Lightly flatten each piece into a circular pancake.

5. Heat a nonstick saucepan with oil; cook pancakes until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Crush 2 sides of the pancakes with spoons or ladles until flaky.
