2 cups flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp oil
1 cup boiling water
a few green onions, finely diced
a little oil in a bowl
coarse salt
- Mix flour, baking powder, 2 tsp oil and 1/4 tsp salt in a bowl.
- Pour boiling water into the bowl, stir with a spoon until it's cool enough to use your hands. Knead the dough until well combined.
- Put the dough in a grease bowl, cover with a tea towel and let rest for 1 hour.
- Divide the dough into 12 pieces
- Roal each piece into a circle, about 1/8 inch thick.
- Brush with oil, sprinkle coarse salt and green onions on top.
- Roll it up like a playdough snake.
- Coil the rolled-up dough.
- Squish it flat with your hand.
- Roll the dough a little flatter with the rolling pin. It's ok if the green onions ooze out.
- Add some oil to a pan, heat it up on medium-high heat.
- Cook cakes on both sides, a few minutes on each side - until they have a nice brownish colour.
- Burn your hands while ripping them apart.
- Burn your mouth as you stuff them into your pie hole to save your burning hands.
This recipe was pretty much copied from here. It has pictures for some of the "crazier" steps.

I love green onion cakes - I must try these. However, since I'm probably the only one who likes them, I will be eating the whole batch.
Also, we got GH5 and I still suck. But you should hear me sing So Lonely by the Police. I sound just like Sting.
Why wasn't I invited to your Green Onion Parties? AND Boozehound & Pony & Chris had a Smoking party yesterday that I wasn't invited to. Ho can I start getting invited to these fun times??
