Bread And Onion Pancakes Recipes

GREEN ONION PANCAKE

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.

SAVORY ONION BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Grease one 8 inch round or one 8x8 inch square pan.
• Combine flour, baking powder and salt, cut in 2 tablespoons of the butter until mixture is crumbly. Stir in 1/2 cup of the grated cheese. Make a well in the center of the mixture.
• Fry the onion in 1 tablespoon of the butter or margarine until clear and golden. Set aside.
• In a small bowl beat the egg and stir in the milk and the cooked onion. Pour egg mixture into the well in the flour mixture. Stir until just moistened. You will have a soft dough. Pat dough into the prepared pan. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup grated cheese over top.
• Bake at 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) for 25 minutes. Serve hot. Makes about 6 servings.

BREAD AND ONION PANCAKES

Steps:

• To make the batter, crush the bread cubes into the chicken stock in a mixing bowl with the back of a spoon. Add the onion, cilantro, Tabasco, eggs and salt, and mix with your hands, kneading the mixture until it is well blended but not smooth; there should still be small visible lumps of wet bread.
• Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil in a large, nonstick skillet. When hot, add about 1/3 cup of the pancake mixture to the skillet, spreading it with a spoon to create a disk about 4 inches in diameter and about 3/8 inch thick. Repeat, working quickly. Have three or four pancakes cooking at a time (depending on the size of your skillet). Cook the pancakes over medium to high heat for about 4 minutes. Then turn and cook for 4 minutes on the other side.
• Transfer the pancakes to an ovenproof plate and set them aside in a warm oven while you continue making more with the remaining batter and oil. (Although the pancakes are best eaten immediately after cooking, they can be cooked ahead, cooled, and then reheated under a hot broiler just before serving.)
• To make the sauce, simply blend all the ingredients. Serve over the pancakes, or dip.
