Simple Scallion Pancakes

1. 1

   ["Mix flour and about 3/4 cup water together until combined. Add more water if necessary. Dough should come together and be sticky, but not overly wet. Knead for 5 to 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.", "Coat dough with a bit of oil, set it in a bowl, cover with cling wrap, and let rest in a bowl for 30 minutes.", "Cut dough into two halves (this will make two 8-inch pancakes).", "Leave one half of the dough covered with cling wrap. On a lightly floured surface, roll one piece of the dough until 1/8-inch thick. Brush with sesame oil. Sprinkle with salt. Sprinkle evenly with chopped scallions. Roll into a thin log. Coil the log to form a spiral.", "Repeat this process in order to get flaky, multi-layered pancakes. Roll the spiral into an oval, as thin as you can get it. Brush with sesame oil and sprinkle with salt and scallions. Roll into a thin log and coil into a spiral again. Repeat 2 to 3 more times (for a total of 3 or 4 rolls and coils) for extra flakiness.", "For your final roll out, the dough should be 1/8-inch thick (for me, this created a circle about 8 inches in diameter). Repeat with the other half of the dough.", "Heat up a skillet with vegetable oil over medium-low heat. When oil is hot and shimmering, gently place one pancake on the skillet. It will sizzle. Cook for 2 minutes. You will see the dough become more ""translucent"" and less white and dough-like. Use a spatula to flip the dough. Cook for another 2 minutes. When finished, both sides should be golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel lined plate to remove any excess oil. Repeat with the other pancake.", "Cut and serve fresh! Season with more salt, if desired."]
