Cong You Bing (Scallion Pancake) Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: flour, lukewarm water, oil, scallions, salt

Provided by Sylvia Bank

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups flour
1 ½ cups lukewarm water
¼ cup oil
⅓ cup scallions
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, slowly add the water to the flour stirring with a wooden spoon until a dough forms.
  • On a floured surface, knead the dough until it is soft and smooth.
  • Making sure your work surface is floured, then cover the dough with a wet towel for 15-20 minutes.
  • Cut the scallions into long thin strips and then cut the strips into small pieces.
  • Flour a surface. Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Roll one of the pieces with a rolling pin until it is ⅛ inch thick.
  • Pour 1 tbsp oil onto the rolled out dough. Spread it out. Salt generously. Add 1-2 Tbsp scallions and spread them out on top.
  • Starting at the side closest to you, roll the dough into a log. Take one end of the log and twist it away from you while simultaneously twisting the other end toward you. The dough should want to form a circle.
  • Coil the twisted log of dough into a small circle in the middle of the log and spiral the ends on top of their respective sides. Seal the ends of the log.
  • Flatten the dough and roll it out with a rolling pin until it is ¼ inch thick.
  • Place the pancake on a large frying pan over medium heat with ½ tsp of oil. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side until crispy and no longer appears or tastes like dough.
  • Cut the pancake into 6 pieces. Enjoy while hot.
