Chinese tortillas with green onions

Pancakes with green onions

If you like to cook homemade bread and all sorts of interesting flatbreads, I suggest you try a very simple recipe for flatbread with green onions, which are fried in a pan. The dough is unleavened.

I don't know if the Chinese realize they are called Chinese. In my opinion, it doesn't matter. The main thing is that these fried tortillas with green onions are very tasty, there are a minimum of ingredients and making them is quite simple and fast.

The composition of the cakes

for 12 cakes

• Flour - 225 g (in a glass - 160, that is, a little less than 1.5 glasses) + a little flour for rolling out the dough;
• Boiling water - 150 ml;
• Salt - to taste;
• Sesame oil (or other vegetable. For example - sunflower, olive, walnut) - 1 teaspoon (in the dough) + 2 teaspoons (for lubrication);
• Green onions - a little (small bunch);
• Vegetable oil for frying.

How to cook

• Sift flour. Add 1 tsp. sesame oil, salt (I put 2-3 small pinches). Pour boiling water over and mix with a spoon until flakes form.
• When the dough becomes warm (it cools down a little), knead it with your hand, kneading until smooth. Roll the dough into a ball. Cover it with a napkin and leave for 20-30 minutes.
• Rinse green onions, dry. Cut in small pieces.
• Sprinkle the surface for rolling out the dough and the rolling pin with flour. Roll out the dough (sprinkling it with flour) in the shape of a rectangle 2-3 mm thick.
• Lubricate the rolled dough with 2 tsp. sesame oil. Sprinkle with green onions. Roll the dough into a tight roll. And cut it into 12 pieces.
• Connect each piece from the ends. Again - roll into a ball and roll into a cake (diameter 8-10 cm). If suddenly the cakes stick to the rolling pin or board, add a little flour (but do not abuse it - excess flour will burn).
• Pour frying oil into a wide frying pan (layer = 1 cm). Heat up. Put the cakes in a pan, fry on both sides over medium heat until golden brown.
• Put the finished cakes on a paper towel (to absorb excess fat). Serve hot with strong and sweet black tea.

I think you will be happy with the result. Herb dumplings are delicious and nutritious! They are prepared from lean foods. And they are good as bread for main courses, and as an independent meal for a snack.

Bon Appetit!

Chinese tortillas with green onions

Ruddy, fried cakes with green onions are offered as a snack in almost all restaurants in China. They are eaten with soy or chili sauce. They are appetizing on their own, without any dips, toppings or fillings. Crispy crust and soft texture inside, slightly salty aroma of bread combined with the smell of green onions - the recipe for such flatbreads has been passed down in China from generation to generation.

Ingredients:

225 g flour
150 ml. boiling water
1 tsp sesame oil (real dark, odorous) or to your taste
4 (feathers or twigs, generally counting by the white parts) green onions


Process:

1. Sift flour into a bowl. Add salt, sesame oil and boiling water.


2. Stir the mixture quickly with a wooden spoon(s) until all the flour is wet. The dough will come together in flakes, as in the photo:

3. Allow the contents of the bowl to cool slightly and knead the dough with your hands until smooth. Roll into a ball, return to the bowl, cover with a towel and let stand for 20-30 minutes.


4. While the dough is resting, wash and cut green onions. The quantity is up to you. It took me 4 branches.
5. Sprinkle the work surface with flour. Roll out the dough into a rectangle / square 2-3 mm thick. Lubricate with vegetable oil of your choice (sunflower, corn, sesame, or if you like it spicier - chili oil). I used corn. Top with onions.


6. Roll the dough with the filling tightly into a roll and cut it into 12 pieces.


7. Pinch each piece on both sides, flatten the resulting lump with the palm of your hand and roll it into a thin cake with a diameter of about 10 cm.




8. Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan (do not be stingy, the cake should have a crispy crust) and heat it over medium heat. Spread the cakes in a pan (oil should boil with white small bubbles along the edges of the cake) and fry until golden brown. By the way, I tried to fry in chili oil - also wonderful. This oil gives the cakes a slight spiciness.


Serve with Chinese dishes. Although with borscht it’s very good))
It is best to eat cakes hot, piping hot.
Very fast and very tasty! I didn’t even expect)) And yet, having tried it, I suddenly realized that the taste of the cakes is almost the same as those that I ate in my favorite Chinese restaurant. That's some luck!! :-D
Bon Appetit!!
