scallion "pancake" 蔥油餅

scallion "pancake"  蔥油餅 is not anything like western pancake. it is slightly salty instead of sweet. when I was in quanzchou walking along a street we came across a couple selling scallion "pancake"  蔥油餅 in a very small store front. i could tell from the appearance they are very good. that is all the couple sells. we bought a piece which only cost a couple of RNB. man! it was so delicious. i had not had good scallion "pancake"  蔥油餅 since my childhood in hong kong.

I went to youtube and watch a few videos of how people (i always learn from a few sources and select bits of techniques from each). I made some for the first time at home:
i used a french mild steel pan
i like putting coarse sea salt on them

such a simple pleasure
