Crispy Fried Green Onion Pancakes are a popular Chinese appetizer that is loved by many. This dish is made with a combination of flour, water, green onions, and a few other ingredients.

Ingredients (serves 4):

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper

Cooking Tips:

- Use cold water to make the dough. This will help to make the pancakes crispy.
- Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help to make the pancakes soft and fluffy.
- Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to make the pancakes easier to handle.

Cooking Process:

1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and black pepper. Slowly add in the water, stirring until a dough forms.
2. Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
3. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin circle.
4. Sprinkle the chopped green onions over the top of each circle. Roll the circle up tightly, like a jelly roll.
5. Coil the roll into a spiral and then flatten it with your hand.
6. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the pancakes until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides.
7. Serve the pancakes hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
