It is also called 'Chinese green onion pancakes' or scallion pancakes.
Making the dough: I mixed 3 cups of flour with a bit less than 1 cup
of warm water, add 2 teaspoons of salt and 3 - 4 tablespoons of oil.
The dough should be medium soft, not hard
Chop scallion into smallest pieces (only the green part).
Cooking:
Divide the dough into smaller pieces.
Roll the small dough into a thin sheet.
Evenly spread a pinch of salt, chopped scallion pieces on the sheet.
Roll it up altogether, and press down.
Roll the mixed dough into 0.6cm thin flat sheet.
In a heated flat sauce pan, add in around 2 tablespoons of oil.
Only when the oil is hot enough, place prepared the sheet into the
sauce pan. Keep medium to low fire. Turn side time to time.
When both sides become gold and crispy
Done!
It can be eaten as snack, or part of the main stable meal, with soup.
There is a custom when eating it, no matter how small the Congyou
bing you made, you always need to chop it into at least 4 pieces for serving.
