How to Make Green Onion Pancakes _ Simple Recipe & Techniques

Hi guys .

It's Angel .

Today .

I'm going to show you how to make which are green onion pancakes , but not just any green onion pancakes .

I'm going to show you how to make super flaky green onion pancakes using some tips and tricks .

So with that , let's get cooking for this recipe .

We'll need two cups of all purpose flour .

Now , flour does expire , so make sure you're using a fresh batch .

Otherwise your pancakes will taste stale .

We'll also need 4 to 5 stocks of green onions and Tomio bean is typically made from the top parts of the green onions .

But today I am going to use the full stock because I like the bottom parts too .

We'll also need one teaspoon of kosher salt , three quarters of a cup of boiling water .

And finally I have here some sea salt flakes which will be a nice finishing salt and also a salt to layer in between the pancakes which will give us this nice savory taste .

When we bite into them .

We'll also meet some vegetable oil too .

First in a large mixing bowl , add your all-purpose flour and your kosher salt .

Give that a good mix to mix all the dry ingredients first .

Then we wanna add our hot water up a little bit at a time to slowly fold that in .

Great .

So once everything's been pretty much mixed in , we are ready to start meeting , spread your dough out on a clean , lightly flowered surface and make sure to use a little flour on your hands .

So it doesn't stick , need the dough for 5 to 8 minutes or until smooth and shiny .

It's a good workout when you're done , kneading , roll the dough into a ball and let it sit on the countertop covered with some damp paper towels or a kitchen towel and let it sit covered for at least 30 minutes .

During that 30 minutes .

We're going to let the dough rest before we roll it out .

While we're waiting .

We can go ahead and cut up our green onions .

If you'd like , you can serve your green onion pancakes with some sauce .

I've got a little bit of soy sauce with some black vinegar mixed in with some sliced red chilies .

Now , we'll go ahead and divide the dough into three pieces , set two pieces aside and let's start rolling out the dough .

Using one of the three pieces begin by flattening with the palm of your hand .

Then with the flowered rolling pin , gently roll your dough out , make it as thin as possible .

Aiming for almost paper .

Like now here's the tip for getting flaky layers .

Use my three hand measurement guide .

This is where you roll the dough out so thin , you can put three of your hands side by side to fit on the dough .

12 , three E C .

Next brush a late coating of vegetable oil , Sprinkle some green onions , add a little bit of sea salt flakes and then carefully roll into a log shape .

When you're done , roll into a cinnamon bun and with the ends , well , just tuck them underneath , then set them aside and let them rest for another 10 minutes .

Ok ?

We will take one pancake just flatten it gently with our hands .

First , we'll want to gently roll this pancake out .

Now , there are gonna be some air bubbles .

So try and work around those .

If you can .

If the air bubbles pop or if the green onions come out , that's fine as well .

We're aiming for two hand widths .

So we don't need to roll it out as big as we had before .

And when you roll it out , try to make sure it's in a circle shape this time .

So hand width , one , two , perfect .

Since I'm only eating two today , I am going to freeze my last pancake .

I've got some parchment paper here .

I'm just going to freeze the pancake between two layers of parchment paper .

And when I want to cook it next time , I'll just take it out of the freezer , let it defrost maybe for about 2 to 3 minutes and then go ahead and put it on the stove just like that .

Now it's time to cook , preheat a nonstick pan on medium heat and brush with a bit of oil .

Then add our pancake brown each side of the pancake for 1 to 2 minutes before flipping .

Then continue to flip and rotate for a total cooking time of 6 to 8 minutes or until done .

Feel free to brush more oil in between flips as needed .

Nearing the end , squeeze your pancake together to create texture and help fluff up those layers .

When you're done , everything should be nice and crisp .

Transfer to a plate to cool slightly before cutting into pieces and serving hot .

Can you guys hear how flaky that is ?

This is how you make flaky green onion pancakes .

They smell really good right now and I wanted you to hear how flaky they are .

Do you hear that ?

They're super flaky ?

Um I'm going to do a taste test .

I can taste the salts , the flaky salts that we put in there .

Very savory , very nice , super yummy flaky .

I hope you try it and let me know how you like it .

I will see you guys next time .
