Peasant Pancakes

    The pancakes reminded me of some of the street food we had in Taiwan. We did add a hand full of chopped bean sprouts. We only got 8 pancakes at 2 tablespoons per cake and we used up all the chicken broth. Thanks for posting!

    Peasant Pancakes, This recipe was the all time winner during my years of teaching and cooking Chinese cuisine professionally They invariably sold out at my restaurant In fact after we closed, my chef opened his own place and sold them out there as well The combination of textures along with the flavor makes them irresistible, The pancakes reminded me of some of the street food we had in Taiwan We did add a hand full of chopped bean sprouts We only got 8 pancakes at 2 tablespoons per cake and we used up all the chicken broth Thanks for posting!, This is what scallion pancakes want to be when they grow up Yum

    Steps

    1
    Done

    *chinese Sausages Are Available in Most Asian Markets.

    2
    Done

    They Keep For a Long Time in the Refrigerator and Even Longer in the Freezer.

    3
    Done

    There Isn't Really a Substitute but, If You're Unable to Find It, Try a Little Ground Pork Instead.

    4
    Done

    Another Alternative Would Be to Omit It from the Recipe- Which I've Done For My Non Meat Eating Daughter in Law.

    5
    Done

    the Pancakes Are Still Super Delicious.

    6
    Done

    Combine the Flour, Baking Powder, Salt, Pepper and Cayenne.

    7
    Done

    Then Stir in Enough of the Stock to Make a Batter Just a Little Thinner Than For Regular Old Pancakes.

    8
    Done

    Stir in the Rest of the Ingredients and Refrigerate Until Ready to Use.

    9
    Done

    Use a Heavy Skillet (cast Iron or Calphalon If Available).

    10
    Done

    Heat It to Very Hot, Then Adjust the Flame Down So the Pancakes Cook Evenly and not Too Quickly.

    11
    Done

    (you'll Soon Get the Hang of It).

    12
    Done

    Add Enough Oil to Cover the Bottom of the Pan and, When Hot, Ladle in About 2 T of the Batter For Each Pancake.

    13
    Done

    When Brown and Crispy on the Bottom, Turn Them Over to Finish the Other Side.

    14
    Done

    (the Unused Portion of the Batter Will Thicken While You're Cooking the Pancakes; Just Add a Little More Stock as Necessary).

    15
    Done

    Blot Well on Paper Towels and Serve With Any or All of the Recommended Sauces.
