Cooking Tips:

2. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll each part into a thin circle.
3. Brush each circle with vegetable oil and sprinkle chopped scallions on top.
4. Roll each circle into a tight cylinder and then coil it into a spiral. Flatten the spiral with your hand.
5. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of vegetable oil.
6. Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.
7. In a small saucepan, mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes until the glaze thickens.
