Dumpling Wrapper Scallion Pancakes

A quick and easy appetizer made with leftover dumpling wrappers and scallions, perfect for serving alongside dumplings.

Ingredients

  • dumpling wrappers (36 pieces)
  • scallions (8 pieces)
  • neutral oil (60 ml)
  • kosher salt (1 pinch)
  • all-purpose flour (1 tsp)

Instructions

  1. Let the wrappers sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes.
  2. As the wrappers warm up, cut the scallions into small pieces. Pat dry using a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
  3. Sprinkle a bit of flour on a clean surface or cutting board. Once warmed up, place 1 wrapper on your work surface. Brush with a thin layer of oil. You’ll need between 1 to 2 teaspoons for each pancake.
  4. Season with a generous amount of kosher salt, followed by a handful of scallions. Place another dumpling wrapper on top and gently press it down. Repeat until you have 6 layers.
  5. Sprinkle on some flour, then use a rolling pin to flatten the pancake into a circle about 4 to 5 inches wide.
  6. Wipe down your work surface and repeat until you’ve completed 6 pancakes.
  7. Heat a nonstick skillet on medium heat. Add a drizzle of oil, followed by a scallion pancake. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown, then flip. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat until you’ve cooked all of the pancakes.
  8. To serve, cut each pancake into quarters and enjoy with your favorite dumpling sauce.
