**Spring Onion Pancakes** are really simple to make. It’s perfect for yummy snacks
and dinner on hump days! This one is also ideal for those who are watching their
sugar intake. I stumbled across this little beauty from [Collecting Memories](http://collectingmemoriess.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/chinese-scallion-pancakes.html)
and had to share!  I like these with a little bit of cream cheese spread on top,
then roll up a slice and inhale!

### Ingredients

 * 2 cups Flour
 * 0.5 tsp Salt
 * 0.25 cup Sesame seed oil
 * 1 cup Water-boiling
 * 1 medium Spring Onion-chopped, as many as you like

[[

### Directions

 * Place flour in bowl of food processor. With food processor running, slowly drizzle
   in about 3/4 of boiling water and process the dough for about 15 seconds.
 * Transfer the dough a floured surface and knead to form a smooth ball. Transfer
   dough to a bowl, cover with a damp towel or plastic wrap, and allow to rest for
   30 minutes at room temperature. You can also leave it overnight in the fridge.
 * Divide the dough into four pieces and roll each into a ball.
 * Roll each ball out into a disk on a lightly floured surface. Using a pastry brush,
   paint a very thin layer of sesame oil over the top of each disk.
 * Roll them up like a jelly roll, then twist roll into a tight spiral, tucking 
   the end underneath.
 * Flatten gently with your hand, then re-roll into a disk.
 * Paint with another layer or sesame oil, sprinkle with 1/2 cup spring onions, 
   and roll up like a jelly roll again.
 * Twist into a spiral, flatten gently, and re-roll into a disk. Repeat steps two
   and three with remaining pancakes.
 * Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat and fry each pancake carefully until 
   golden brown. Flip and fry the other side until it is also golden brown.
 * Season with salt, cut into 6 wedges, and repeat the process.
 * Instead of using the food processor, mix flour and salt in a large bowl..
 * Stir in the boiling water and mix with a wooden spoon until the dough forms comes
   together.
 * Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes.
 * Transfer the dough to a bowl and cover it for about 30 minutes or leave it in
   the fridge overnight.
 * Proceed to do the remaining steps above.

[[

### Notes

 * The dough of Spring Onion Pancakes is suitable to freeze for up to 1 month.
 * You can replace 1/4 of the flour for whole wheat flour.
 * You may mix the ingredients manually, using a bowl and a wooden spoon, or use
   a food processor to get it done more quickly.
