Leek Pancakes
By TheaSmith
I spent some time in Anhui before, where I really experienced the authentic farm life. Having grown up in the reinforced steel forest since childhood, I naturally feel very fresh and interesting about growing vegetables, catching fish, and picking duck eggs. There are even more domestic fruits and vegetables without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Although they don't look good, they taste much better than the green vegetables from greenhouses. Especially the leeks I grow are really tender. They are not thick and hard like the ones sold on the market. They are also very fragrant. When fried with eggs, the fragrance can be smelled all over the house. I also learned to make fragrant leek pies there.

Steps for Leek Pancakes
1
Wash leeks and mung bean sprouts, cool and dry for later use.2
Enlarge the flour into a plate, sprinkle with some salt, mix well, add 1 bowl of water, stir well with chopsticks, then knead into a smooth dough, cover and leave for half an hour.3
Prepare the filling when you wake up, cut the leeks into fine pieces, remove the green beans, cut them into small pieces, place them in a bowl, pour some peanut oil, a few drops of sesame oil, and five-spice powder, and mix well.4
Chop the pork into minced meat, add salt, and season with a little soy sauce.5
After heating the oil, put the minced pork meat into the pan, divide it, stir fry it and serve. After cooling, add the chopped leeks and mix well to make the filling.6
Divide the awakened dough into 2-3 parts, sprinkle dry flour on the chopping board, and take a small part on the chopping board and roll it thin to form a round dough.

Place the filling in the middle of the dough and sprinkle with salt.

Then tighten the dough towards the middle, retract it, and gently press it down to expel excess air. Then roll it out slightly with a dough stick.

Heat the oil in another pot, turn to medium heat, put the dough into the pot, fry both sides until golden yellow, and turn to low heat for a while.(Pay attention to turning at this time, the dough will easily scorch)

Cut it into four pieces and eat it hot. The skin is crispy and the filling is fragrant. It will be swept away as soon as it comes out of the pan.
