Green Onion Cakes

Recipe View In a large bowl, combine the bread flour and boiling water. Use a fork to mix until a shaggy dough forms. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a ball. (8 minutes)

Recipe View Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let the dough rest at room temperature. (30-60 minutes)

Recipe View Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a thin, approximately 6-inch circle. (15 minutes)

Recipe View Brush each circle generously with vegetable oil, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon of finely chopped green onions. (8 minutes)

Recipe View Tightly roll each circle up like a cigar. Then, coil the roll into a spiral, tucking the end underneath. Pinch the open ends together to seal, forming a disc. (10 minutes)

Recipe View Gently flatten each coiled disc with a rolling pin to about 1/4 inch thickness. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Heat 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Fry the cakes until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Add more oil to the skillet as needed to prevent sticking. (15 minutes)
