Cooking Instructions
- 1
Mix 1 cup flour and salt.
- 2
Pour in the boiling water and mix. Mixture will look crumbly.
- 3
When cooled to the touch, use hands to mix and form a dough ball. Knead on a hard surface for 3-4 minutes.
- 4
Cover with a bowl and let the dough rest while you make a roux.
- 5
Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add in flour and mix thoroughly. Add in spices and stir just until mixture starts to bubble. Remove from heat.
- 6
On a floured surface roll out your dough into a rectangle. It should be thin enough that it will tear if you try to lift it.
- 7
Using a pastry brush, cover the rectangle with the roux. Spread evenly.
- 8
Sprinkle scallions over the dough, spreading evenly and using all of them.
- 9
Starting at one of the short sides, tightly roll the dough into a log. Then, taking one end, roll the log into a tight spiral.
- 10
Using a rolling pin, lightly flatten the spiral to a thin layer and roll another log. Cut the log into 5 pieces. Turning each piece upward so that you can see the inner spiral, flatten each of the 5 pieces.
- 11
Heat a nonstick pan to medium heat. Add oil and when hot enough, add one pancake at a time and fry until golden brown on both sides. Remove pancake and sprinkle with salt flakes. Repeat for all 5 Pancakes.
- 12
Drizzle with sesame oil and enjoy.

Chinese scallion pancake Chinese scallion pancake
A scallion pancake is a kind of pancake made with green onions. In Mandarin, it’s known as cong you bing. It’s hard to tell where it was first created, but many of these tales point to Shanghai in northeastern China. It’s a popular breakfast flatbread in China. The scallion pancake greatly resembles an Indian paratha. A Chef and A Mom -

Gluten-Free Scallion Pancake Gluten-Free Scallion Pancake
Gluten-free scallion pancake is inspired by the Korean seafood pancake. It’s easy to make and only requires 4 ingredients.Scallion or green onion pancake is a Chinese savory often served as breakfast at food stalls in Taiwan. Unlike western pancake, scallion pancake or Chong Yo Bing in Mandarin is traditionally made of dough and folded several times with sliced green onion and oil then pan-fried. The highlight of this slightly salted pancake is its crispy edge with a chewy and flaky texture.For someone who has a gluten allergy like me, a regular version is not an option so I have decided to create something that has the closest taste and texture to my favorite food since I was a child. This recipe was inspired by the Korean seafood pancake, Haemul Pajeon. Since this pancake is made from grounded mung bean and not flour, achieving that chewy and flaky texture can be trickier. The key is to spread out the mung bean paste thinly and add as much sliced green onion as possible. In this recipe, I added a moderate amount of salt. If you prefer it saltier, please sprinkle some more before serving.Video Instruction: youtu.be/JflDzBeQa10 Julie - Mrs. Lin's Kitchen -

This version has not just shredded zucchini, but also feta, fresh dill and scallions. They are crisp on the outside and tender within. The trick to making the pancakes crisp and not soggy is to squeeze all the water out of the zucchini before mixing it with the other ingredients. Ricardo -

I grew up eating this simple yet delicious Chinese dish. My grandma would often make it for us kids and it’s been one of those nostalgic flavours for me. My dad recently taught me how to make it so I hope to make these for my kids one day as well. It’s super simple and super tasty. It’s like eating naan with curry or eating a bun with your soup. It goes well with other foods. hughluotatebe -

Step 8: I love eating cottage cheese mixed with jam, so I made this. This week's theme is pancakes, so I thought I'd try this combination.If you don't have a non-stick pan, oiling the pan with butter rather than oil makes it taste good. If you're not going to eat these right away, wrap with plastic and put in the refrigerator. In this case, heat the chilled pancakes in the microwave until they soften.
