Instructions
Stir the flour and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
Add the sesame oil and hot water. Stir everything together to form a shaggy dough.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead it until smooth, 3 to 4 minutes.
Roll the dough into a ball. Generously rub the dough with a tablespoon or two of oil and transfer it to a clean bowl. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
While the dough rests, make the sauce by stirring all ingredients together in a small bowl.
After the dough has rested, cut it into 4 equal portions. Remove one portion of dough from the bowl and recover the rest.
Place the dough portion on a lightly floured work surface and use a rolling pin to roll it into a an approximately 6-inch circle.
Lightly brush the dough with oil and sprinkle it with a quarter of the scallions.
Roll the dough tightly into a long snake, enclosing the scallions within. Coil the snake into a circle.
Use your rolling pin to roll the coil into a thin 7 to 8 inch circle.
Cover the dough circle with a damp towel, then repeat the process for the remaining dough portions. Stack the finished dough circles with paper towels in between and cover them with a damp towel.
Generously coat the bottom of a medium skillet with about 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil and place it over medium heat.

Yum - crispy and flaky. Really enjoyed these and were so simple to make. Thanks
Sorry, I usually love your recipes, but these were dense and chewy, rather than light and flaky. Maybe if you brushed the circle of dough with oil before making your snake like I have seen in other recipes would give some definition between the layers in the finished pancake. I liked the idea of the veggies inside. I'll have to wait until the stores open up and get more spring onions to try again .
Savory pancakes are so wonderful! I love all the veggies you packed in there - I never would've thought to add broccoli to a pancake, and it sounds marvelous! So creative and tasty!
