Cong You Bing (Chinese Scallion Pancakes) Recipe

Combine flour water 1 teaspoon oil and salt in a large bowl. Knead until well combined. Cover and set aside until dough is soft but not wet and sticky 10 to 15 minutes. Add more flour if needed.

Divide dough into 8 pieces. Roll each piece into an 8-inch-long strip about 2 inches thick.

Sprinkle the dough with green onions and sesame oil. Roll each strip into a spiral pinching the end to prevent unrolling.

Flatten each spiral with a rolling pin to create a disk-shaped pancake about 5 inches wide.

Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Fry each scallion pancake until golden brown about 4 minutes per side.
