Scallion pancakes, as a traditional Chinese delicacy, are loved by people for their crispy and delicious taste and unique production process. Today, we will introduce you to a home-cooked scallion pancake method, so that you can enjoy the food while experiencing the fun of making.
First, we need to prepare the ingredients we need: flour, chives, salt, oil, and water. Once the ingredients are ready, we can start making them.
In the first step, the flour and water are mixed together in a certain proportion to form a smooth dough. This process requires patience and moderate strength to ensure the quality of the dough. Once the dough is kneaded, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let it sit for about 20 minutes.
In the second step, while the dough is resting, we can cut the chives into chopped shallots. Place the chopped green onions in a bowl and set aside.
In the third step, roll out the dough into thin flakes and sprinkle with salt and chopped green onions. Then, roll the dough sheet from one side to form a long strip.
In the fourth step, cut the long strips of dough into small pieces, each about 5 cm or so. Take a small cut piece, pinch the incision tightly, and roll it out slightly to form a small round cake.
Step 5: Pour an appropriate amount of oil into a frying pan, add the rolled round cakes after the oil is hot, and fry them until golden brown on both sides. During the pancake process, you need to pay attention to the heat and time to avoid burning or overfrying.
The made scallion pancake is golden in color, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the green onion is fragrant. Whether it's for breakfast, lunch or dinner, it's a great choice. In addition, making scallion pancakes at home can not only ensure the freshness and hygiene of the ingredients, but also adjust and play according to your own taste.
In addition to the traditional scallion pancakes, we can also add other seasonings or ingredients to the dough sheets, such as sesame seeds, ham sausages, eggs, etc., to make scallion pancakes with more flavors. These innovative practices not only increase appetite, but also allow our taste buds to be more enjoyable.
In short, as a traditional delicacy with a unique flavor, scallion pancake occupies an important position in Chinese cuisine. With simple ingredients and simple production processes, we can easily make crispy and delicious scallion pancakes at home.
