Green Onion Pancakes

2020-12-31

• 2 cups flour
• 2 1/4 tsp yeast
• 1/2 cup water 105 degrees F
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt, plus some more to sprinkle on the dough
• 4 tbsp olive oil, plus some more for frying
• Black pepper
• 2 bunches of green onions, chopped fine

Mix the water, sugar, and yeast in a cup, and stir. Mix the flour and salt using standing mixer with paddle attachment. Mix yeast mixture into flour mixture using standing mixer until it forms a dough ball. Let dough rise 45 minutes.

Divide dough and green onions into 4 portions. For each portion:

• Roll dough out flat on a floured surface.
• Cover dough sheet with 1/2 - 1 tbsp of olive oil. Spread it thinly and evenly.
• Sprinkle black pepper and salt over the dough.
• Sprinkle the green onions over the dough.
• Roll up the dough into a cylinder.
• Divide into three inch segments.
• Turn each segment on its side and then smoosh each cylinder into a flat disc.

Heat oil in pan. Pan fry discs until golden brown on each side (2-4 min per side). Let rest on a paper towel to remove excess oil, then eat... but be careful, they're hot.
