Green Onion Pancakes are a staple at any Chinese Dim Sum Restaurants. It is also a common street food in China. However, it's not hard to make one of your own with little effort and still taste almost, if not just as great. Green onion pancakes are not pancakes, per se, in North American standards, but are still delicious and are a good breakfast item or appetizer.

  • Sprinkle some flour onto the kitchen counter and transfer the dough there
  • Add the green onions and knead the dough
  • Flatten with a rolling pin and form into a ball again, the more times this is repeated the better it taste
  • Optionally, the lazy way of doing it is to not bother with needing the though and simply kind-of flatten it, then ball it, a couple of times

Fry It
