Scallion pancake, also known as cong you bing, spring onion pancake, and green onion pancake, is a popular Chinese street food and snack. It is a type of flatbread made by layering chewy dough with finely chopped scallions, oil, and seasoning. The pancake is then cooked on a griddle or pan until crispy and golden brown on both sides. The resulting flatbread is crispy, chewy, tender, and multi-layered with a salty, savory, and aromatic flavor. It is similar to roti or paratha.
Scallion pancakes are often served with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil. They can be eaten as a snack, appetizer, or bread, and are popular throughout China and in many other parts of the world.
