One of my mom's recipes. Absolutely delicious!!! However, as with all of my mom's recipes, there are almost no exact measurements for the ingredients. So, my advice is to experiment. This recipe is almost impossible to mess up. It will taste great no matter what you do with the ingredients.

Hot Water Dough:
3 C flour
1 C hot water
1/2 C cold water

Mix flour with hot water, then slowly add cold water until a soft dough forms. If too sticky, add more flour and gently mix it in. Place dough in lightly greased bowl. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes.

Scallion Pancakes:
Hot Water Dough
Chopped Scallions, the more the tastier
Salt
Vegetable Oil

Roll a palm size piece of dough into a flat circle. In listed order, evenly spread approx. 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, then sprinkle approx. 1/4 teaspoon of salt, finally a palmful of chopped scallions on dough. Roll tightly into a long tube then create a spiral (like a cinnamon roll) with the tube; this creates the layers in the pancake. Roll spiral into a flat, 1/2-inch pancake.

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a flat pan. Fry pancake on each side until golden brown, approximately 3 minutes per side on medium-high heat.

Serve immediately.
