Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 3/4 cup Water

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Chopped Spring Onions
  • Vegetable Oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water while stirring until a smooth batter forms. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter. Fold in the chopped spring onions, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  2. Heat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a generous amount of vegetable oil to coat the bottom. You want enough oil to create that crispy texture.
  3. Cook the Pancake: Pour half the batter into the hot skillet, spreading it evenly. Allow it to cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy. Flip the pancake carefully using a spatula and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes.
  4. Repeat and Serve: Once the first pancake is cooked, transfer it to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter. Cut into wedges and serve hot.

Notes

  • Don’t Overmix: Mix the batter just until combined to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
  • Adjust Oil Temperature: If the oil is too hot, the pancakes may burn; if too low, they won’t crisp up properly.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh spring onions will significantly enhance the flavor of your pancakes.
  • Cook in Batches: Don’t overcrowd the pan; cook one or two pancakes at a time for even cooking.
  • Experiment with Dips: Try serving with soy sauce, chili sauce, or a tangy vinegar dip for added flavor.
