       Title: SCALLION PANCAKES
  Categories: Chinese, Breads, Loo
       Yield: 6 servings
  
       1 c  Flour
     1/3 c  Water, boiling hot
       2 tb Scallion greens, minced
       2 ts Lard or Crisco
     1/2 ts Salt
       4 tb Oil
  
   Mix flour and water. Add a little more flour or a
   little cold water if dough is not the right
   consistency. Knead until smooth. Let rest 15 min. Roll
   dough into a cylinder and divide into 6 pieces.
   
   Flatten each piece into a 4″ circle. Brush with
   softened fat and sprinkle with salt and scallions.
   Roll each pancake into a long thin spiral and flatten
   it. Fold this spiral into a square and flatten again.
   Roll into a short fat spiral and flatten this to a 4″
   circle.
   
   Heat 3 T oil and fry each piece until golden (flip
   once to cook both sides). Add a teaspoon of oil or so
   between pancakes if the oil is too depleted.
   
   Adapted from Wei-Chuan, Chinese Snacks, to the way I
   do it; but I do less flattening and rolling.
