Ingredients You'll Need
For the Dough:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
For the Filling:
2 cups chopped Chinese chives
1/2 cup chopped scallions
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Make the Dough
To make the dough, start by mixing the all-purpose flour and boiling water together in a large bowl until a rough dough forms. Gradually add in the cold water while kneading the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
2. Prepare the Filling
While the dough is resting, prepare the filling by mixing the chopped Chinese chives, scallions, cilantro, salt, black pepper, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a separate bowl. Set aside.
3. Roll Out the Dough
After 30 minutes, divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. On a floured surface, roll out each ball into a thin circle, about 1/8 inch thick.
4. Add the Filling
Place a heaping spoonful of the filling on one half of the dough circle, leaving a small border around the edges. Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and press the edges together to seal.
5. Cook the Pancakes
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Place the stuffed dough onto the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
6. Serve and Enjoy!
Once cooked, remove the pancakes from the pan and let them cool for a few minutes before slicing into wedges. Serve hot with a dipping sauce of your choice, such as soy sauce or chili sauce.
With this easy Chinese chive pancake recipe, you can now recreate this popular street food in the comfort of your own kitchen.
