Chinese Scallion Pancakes


This is a very simple snack. I got the recipe from here. I made a few changes as yeast water was enough for me to knead the dough.

Ingredients:
Maida - 1 ½ cup
Yeast - 1 tsp.
Sugar - 1 tsp.
Scallions/spring onions - 2 (chopped)
Salt (to sprinkle)
Oil - 1 tbsp. + to fry the pancakes

Method:
Dissolve the yeast in warm water with sugar.
Add this water to the sifted flour and knead it into a dough.
Add 1 tbsp. of oil and knead again.
Cover and keep it aside for 2 hrs.
Knead and divide them into equal sized balls.
Flatten the ball into a circle.
Brush with oil on the circle, then sprinkle little salt and scallion pieces.
Roll up the circle.
Roll into lengthwise like a spiral.
Flatten them again.
Pan fry on both sides with a little cooking oil till it becomes golden color.
Proceed the same with the remaining balls.
Enjoy with or without any side-dish.
