INGREDIENTS

  • Dough

    • 💧 ½ cup warm water
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon white sugar
    • 1 teaspoon yeast
    • 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
    • 💧 ½ cup hot water
    • 2 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon salt
    • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • 🌱 1 cup finely chopped scallions

STEPS

1

Combine warm water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl. Add 1 cup flour; stir dough with a spatula.

2

Mix the remaining 1 cup flour, hot water, 2 tablespoons oil, and salt together in a separate bowl until dough-like in texture. Add the dough from step 1; knead together into a round ball, dusting with flour as needed. Place dough ball on a lightly floured work surface; cover with a warm, damp towel for 30 to 40 minutes.

3

Pinch dough ball into 2 pieces. Roll each out and sprinkle half the scallions on top. Roll up each piece into a tube; pinch each in half. Roll and flatten into large pancakes, dusting with flour, if needed.

4

Heat the remaining oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook pancakes until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
