Recipe - Chinese Scallion Pancakes

2/3 cup Flour; + some more
1/3 cup Water
Butter/ margarine
Salt
One half cup Chopped green
onions/scallions; divided
to 3 portions
3 tablespoon Cooking oil

In a medium sized bowl, combine 2/3 cup flour and 1/3 cup water to make a
manage dough. It's a good idea to start with less water and increase a
tablespoon at a time since I don't know the exact measurements. The dough
may be a little tough but that's okay. Divide the dough into 3 pieces and
keep the ones you're not using under a damp cloth. Roll out the dough to a
rectangular shape on a lightly floured surface.

NOTE: the thinner the dough is the more layers you'll get. Spread enough
margarine to cover surface Sprinkle enough salt to cover surface(this
depends on personal taste). Sprinkle one portion of scallions on dough Roll
up dough TIGHTLY by the short length, tucking in the scallions along the
way and seal the edge. Coil the dough into a snail shell and seal end. Roll
out as flat as possible. Heat up frying pan with a tablespoon of oil. Fry
both sides of pancake 'til golden. The whole thing won't be brown, only the
spots where it's actually touching the pan. Slice and serve immediately
when done. If it's not salty enough, it can be served with some soy sauce.
Makes 3 individual pancakes.
