After making 10 chubby siu mai, I still have plenty of dumpling skins left but I don’t really want to put them back to the freezer. So I decided to make scallion pancakes, yes, with dumpling skins!
The recipe only requires 5 ingredients and won’t take you much time and effort. The cheat version actually came out flaky and crunchy, just so quick and easy to make. Trust me, you will definitely love this shortcut.
INGREDIENTS
-Dumpling skins
-Chopped spring onions
-Salt
-White pepper
-Oil
METHOD
1. Mix chopped spring onions, salt, white pepper and oil together in a bowl.
2. On a clean work surface, take one dumpling skin and spread a thin layer of spring onion mixture on top.
3. Cover with another dumpling skin, repeat the process to produce 3-5 layers.
4. Press down and roll the layered dumpling skins with a rolling pin into a thinner long piece.
5. Use a knife to slice a few cuts, fold it over and roll into a round shape, then press and flatten it again.
6. Heat oil in a pan over medium high heat, pan fry the scallion pancake until golden crispy on both sides.
7. Enjoy it with dipping sauce.
