Ingredients (serves 4):
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup chopped scallions
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Vegetable oil for frying
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure the butter is chilled and cubed before adding it to the flour mixture. This will help create a flaky texture.
- Use cold water to mix the dough. This will also help create a flaky texture.
- Don't overmix the dough. Mix until just combined.
- Use a non-stick pan or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for frying.
Cooking Process:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
2. Add the chilled butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Add the cold water and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
4. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
5. On a floured surface, roll out each ball into a thin circle.
6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, scallions, salt, and pepper.
7. Heat a non-stick pan or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of vegetable oil.
8. Pour a quarter of the egg mixture into the pan and let it cook for a few seconds.
9. Place a rolled-out dough circle on top of the egg mixture and press down gently.
10. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, until the pancake is golden brown and the egg is cooked through.
11. Repeat with the remaining dough and egg mixture.
