Spring Onion Pancakes

We absolutely love spring onion pancakes! These savory and crispy pancakes are perfect as a snack or a side dish, and they're surprisingly easy to make.

This recipe only requires a few simple ingredients, such as flour, water, salt, and of course, spring onions. The dough is rolled out into thin circles, sprinkled with chopped spring onions, and then pan-fried until crispy and golden brown.

The combination of the flaky texture and the savory flavor of the spring onions makes these pancakes simply irresistible. We love how versatile they are, and how they can be enjoyed on their own or served with a dipping sauce.

Not only is this recipe easy to follow, but it's also a great way to use up any leftover spring onions in your fridge. Give this recipe a try, your friends & family will love you for it!

  4. Add the salt and spring onions and mix them well together
  5. Get a flat non-stick pan ready on low to medium fire, apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the pan, I used the kitchen towel to dip into the oil and wipe the surface of the pan, that’s all you need. Repeat this step each time before you pour the mixture
  6. Pour a quarter cup of the mixture into the pan. While cooking maintain the fire to low and fry the spring onion pancakes for approx. for 1-2 minutes till the edge of the pancakes are golden and a bit rolled away from the pan.
  7. Flip it over and cook another side for another minute. The way to see if its cooked is to press gently on the surface of the pancake if it bounces back quickly it is cooked.
  8. Its recommended serving the Spring Onion Pancakes when they are hot. However, these thin ones are also nice when they are cold. Plus, wrapped with some cucumber and carrots can be nice as well as nutritious.
