These Chinese street-food-style pancakes make a mouthwatering appetizer or snack.<\/p>\n
Ingredients
\nDipping Sauce
\n 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
\n 1\/4 cup tamari
\n 1\/4 cup rice vinegar
\n 1 teaspoon peeled and minced fresh ginger
\n 1 tablespoon honey<\/p>\n
Pancakes
\n 2 cups all-purpose flour
\n 1 cup boiling water
\n 1\/2 cup diced scallions (green tops and white parts)
\n 2 tablespoons sesame oil
\n Salt
\n 2 tablespoons vegetable oil<\/p>\n
Preparation
\n 1. Stir dipping sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Set aside.
\n 2. In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour and boiling water until a ball of dough can be formed. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
\n 3. Cut the dough ball into about 8 equal pieces. On a floured surface, roll out one of the pieces of dough into a circle. Brush with 3\/4 teaspoon sesame oil and sprinkle with 1\/8 of the scallions and a pinch of salt. Roll the circle, jelly-roll style, into a rope, pinch the ends to seal in the scallions and coil the rope into a spiral shape. Flatten the coiled pancake slightly with the palm of your hand. Repeat with the remaining dough and scallions.
\n 4. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add one of the pancakes to the hot oil in the pan and cook for 2 to 4 minutes on each side, swirling it in the oil from time to time to promote even browning. When the pancake is lightly browned, remove from the pan and hold on a plate in a warm oven until all pancakes are cooked. Cut pancakes into triangles and serve with dipping sauce.<\/p>\n
Serving Suggestion
\nThe Chinese \u201cstreet food\u201d version of these pancakes are often served for breakfast, but are more often served as an appetizer in North America. For a softer pancake, add a bit more water to the dough; you can substitute fresh garlic scapes for the scallions for a different flavor.<\/p>\n
