Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

½ cup warm water

1 teaspoon white sugar

1 teaspoon yeast

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour, divided

½ cup hot water

2 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil, divided, or as needed

1 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or as needed

1 cup finely chopped scallions

Directions

Combine warm water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl. Add 1 cup flour; stir dough with a spatula.

Mix the remaining 1 cup flour, hot water, 2 tablespoons oil, and salt together in a separate bowl until dough-like in texture. Add the dough from step 1; knead together into a round ball, dusting with flour as needed. Place dough ball on a lightly floured work surface; cover with a warm, damp towel for 30 to 40 minutes.

Pinch dough ball into 2 pieces. Roll each out and sprinkle half the scallions on top. Roll up each piece into a tube; pinch each in half. Roll and flatten into large pancakes, dusting with flour, if needed.

Heat the remaining oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook pancakes until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side.

Cook's Note:

Garlic salt may be substituted for regular salt.
