[anti-gaspi] Chinese pancake with leek green

Greedy friends, hello?

While shopping every week, I noticed that market gardeners throw away the green of leek, probably at the request of customers... What a pity!

During my trip to China, I had loved the Chinese wafers, lightly flaky, crunchy on the surface and soft inside... They are made with green onion or leek. I was kindly entrusted with the traditional recipe, which I barely adapted...
The shopping list for about 10 cakes:

600 gr. Flour

50 cl of water

The green of 2 leeks

10 cl of vegetable oil (5cl for marinade, 5cl for cooking)

salt
Put your apron on:

Cool the water. Place the flour in a bowl and pour the water. Mix, then form a ball.

Cover the bowl and let stand for 30 minutes.

Slice the leek green as thinly as possible, reserve it in a bowl and marinate it in oil. Salt (generously because the dough is not salty)

Divide the dough into 10 balls.

Spread each dough ball thinly on a floured work surface. Line the top with marinated leek. Fold the dough on both sides to form a rectangular strip. Roll it up, form a spiral, like raisin bread? 9... Make the same with the other balls of dough.

Form the 5 mm patties by spreading the dough again.

In a skillet over medium heat with a base of oil, brown the patties 2-3 minutes per side.

To taste just out of the pan... humm, a treat!

I hope that this other way of enjoying the leek will please you and that nobody will throw away the leek green anymore?

See you soon, kisses.
