Stages of cooking
-
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and garlic powder. Pour in the hot water and stir until the dough comes together. Knead the dough for 2 minutes, adding more hot water if needed. Cover and let sit for 20 minutes.
-
On a floured surface, cut the dough into 4 pieces and shape them into balls. Roll out each ball into an 8-inch circle, brush with oil, and sprinkle scallions on top.
-
Roll up each circle to form a log, curl the right side toward the center to form a snail shape. Flatten and roll out again into a thin circle.
-
Heat a small amount of canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook each pancake for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, scallion, vinegar, sesame oil, and maple syrup for the dipping sauce.
-
Serve the pancakes warm, cut into triangles, with the dipping sauce on the side.
