Steps:
- Use a fork to mix flour and boiling water in a large bowl. Knead dough into a ball. Cover bowl with plastic wrap; let dough rest for 30 to 60 minutes.
- Evenly divide dough into 16 pieces. Roll each piece into a 1/4 inch thick circle. Brush each circle with oil, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon of green onions. Roll up, cigar style; coil each pancake and pinch open ends together to form a disc. Roll each circle flat to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet. Fry cakes until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Add more oil between batches, if necessary.

Steps:
- Make your favourite recipe or pancake mix without adding the liquids. I used two cups of dry mix from a box.
- Add the cheese and onions.
- Add the liquids, using slightly more liquid than is required (about 1/4 cup more milk/water), and stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. Be sure to scrape the bottom as you mix or there will more than likely be dry stuff not mixed in - if you wait to find out and stir after, you risk the pancakes being dense from overstirring, which causes gluten to form. This should make enough batter for 7-8 pancakes (about 3-4 cups total). The mixture will be thick and lumpy, but this is a good thing!
- Scoop about 1/3 cup at a time into a non-stick or oiled frying pan set on medium-low heat.
- Cook pancakes, flipping over every few minutes. A good way to tell when a pancake is ready to flip is by the appearance of bubbles towards the middle of the batter. With this mix, the batter is too thick to wait that long and the pancakes should be flipped at the appearance of a few bubbles. It never hurts to do an "edge" check by lifting up the side of a pancake with a spatula to check the colour. A golden-brown signals that the cake can be flipped!
- Garnish with your favourite savoury topping and enjoy!

Steps:
- Place flour in a bowl. Add hot water slowly in a steady stream, mixing well after each addition. Add cold water; mix until no dry spots remain. Knead dough lightly by hand until a ball is formed. Place dough in an oiled resealable plastic bag; seal the bag and let dough rest for 30 minutes.
- Place scallions in a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
- Roll dough out onto a floured work surface into a thin rectangle using a rolling pin. Spread butter all over; sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. Spread scallions over the dough, leaving top edge of the dough empty. Roll dough up carefully from the opposite edge, keeping scallions in place and pulling dough a little with every roll to make it tight.
- Cut the roll into 3- to 4-inch-long pieces by hand; pinch and seal both ends. Lightly flatten each piece into a circular pancake.
- Heat a nonstick saucepan with oil; cook pancakes until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Crush 2 sides of the pancakes with spoons or ladles until flaky.

Steps:
- Beat the egg and sesame oil together.
- Brush one side of one egg roll wrapper with the egg mixture.
- Sprinkle with 1/4 green onions and 1 tsp sesame seeds.
- Brush one side of another egg roll wrapper and press wet side on top of the other one and press down to seal.
- Repeat for other 3 pancakes.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil on medium high heat.
- Fry each side of each pancake for about 2 minutes til golden brown.
- Add more heat as necessary.
- Cut each into 6 pieces.
- Can serve with soy sauce.
Tips:
- To ensure an even batter consistency, whisk together the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, and salt) in a separate bowl before incorporating them into the wet ingredients (milk, eggs, and melted butter).
- For perfectly golden brown pancakes, preheat your pan or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or cooking oil to prevent sticking.
- To achieve a light and fluffy texture, do not overmix the batter. Gently combine the wet and dry ingredients until just combined to avoid developing gluten, which can result in dense pancakes.
- For a uniform shape, use a measuring cup or spoon to portion the batter onto the hot griddle, creating round pancakes.
- Resist the temptation to flip the pancakes too soon. Allow them to cook undisturbed until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear slightly dry. This will ensure that the pancakes are cooked evenly throughout.
- Once flipped, cook the pancakes for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown on the underside. This will ensure that they are cooked through without becoming dry.
- Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, honey, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. Enjoy them while they are hot and fluffy!
