Spicy Garlic Scallion Pancakes

1. Mix together flour, sugar, and salt. Slowly add in hot water while mixing with wooden spoon or hands.
2. Bring the dough together and knead until fairly soft (5-10mins).
3. Cover the dough and rest for 30+ minutes.
4. While resting, chop up the scallions and make a roux (learned this from Inga Lam on YouTube) by simmering equal parts flour and oil until mixed well and fairly thick. You don’t need to do this but I liked it!
5. Roll out your dough into a log and break up into 5 or 6 pieces.
6. Roll out a piece, slather on the roux or vegetable oil (get it alllll over), and spread out the scallions, garlic, salt, and chili flakes.
7. Roll the dough tightly onto itself from one end to the other.
8. Then take the ends and roll into a coil, tuck in the ends.
9. Now, flatten out the coils as thin as poss. I pressed w my hands as well. Things will prob break through but I don’t mind the rustic look!
10. Let it rest for a few minutes and fry them up!!
