Green Onion Cakes Recipe
Ingredients:
Oil
1/2 tsp pepper (white)
2 tsp salt
1 c scallions; chopped
2 tsp sesame oil
1/4 c vegetable shortening
1 1/4 c water
3 1/3 c flour
For the Dip:
1 tsp chili sauce
1 tsp garlic; finely chopped
2 tsp scallions; chopped
2 Tbsp soya sauce
1/2 c broth (chicken)
Instructions:
Take a bowl and put the flour. Add some boiling water and stir until the dough becomes moistened evenly. Knead the dough on board until consistency is good for around 5 mins. Cover. Set aside for around 30 min.
Put together the ingredients of the dip in a different bowl.Roll the dough ’til it takes a cylindrical shape. Then slice it into 12parts.
For the cake, roll part of the dough and shape an 8 in. circle that is around 1/8 in. thick. Cover the remainder to keep it from drying. Use the shortening to brush the dough.
Add some sesame oil, salt, pepper and scallions. Roll the dough again into cylindrical shape and make round patty. After which, tuck the edge of the dough. Then roll it again and make the same 8 in. circle.
To cook, prepare a pan and heat in medium temperature. Put in around 2 Tbsp of oil. Make sure that you coat the pan completely. Place a cake gingerly and let it cook. Turn it over once.
When it reaches a golden shade, it’s done. Do the same with the other cakes. Slice into small wedges (like pizza). Prepare to serve with the dip.
