scallion pancakes

Fried allium bread

Scallion pancakes are a Chinese flatbread made by folding chopped scallions into an unleavened dough, then pan-frying until crispy and golden.

The dough is typically rolled, oiled, and coiled to create flaky layers.

Served as an appetizer or street food, often with dipping sauce: We ordered scallion pancakes while we waited for our entrees.
