Cong you bing, a Chinese street-food favorite, is made by brushing dough with oil, rolling it up with scallions, then pan-frying it until crisp and flaky. It is also a convenient snack because it can be frozen before cooking.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Knead the dough

20 min

Knead the flour with hot water and salt until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let it rest for 20 minutes.

2

Oil and roll

5 min

Roll the dough into a thin rectangle. Brush with sesame oil and sprinkle with scallions. Roll it up tightly, then coil it into a spiral.

3

Flatten again

5 min

Press the coiled dough with your palm to flatten it into a round.

4

Cook

15 min

Heat the oil in a pan and cook the pancake for 15 minutes, until both sides are golden and crisp.

Reminder

If freezing after rolling, leave it at room temperature for half an hour before cooking. Allergen: contains gluten (wheat).

Hamuru 20 dakika yerine yarım saat dinlendirdim çünkü mutfağım soğuktu, açması o kadar daha kolay oldu. Katmanları görebilmek için ilk denememde biraz kalın sardım, bir dahaki sefere daha ince açacağım.
