Scallion Cake
I love these cakes. I serve them with wonton soup or use them as an appetizer or a snack with tea. These can be frozen after frying and reheated in a moderate oven for 10 minutes before serving. Another great recipe from my tattered copy of "Madame Wong's Long-Life Chinese Cookbook".

DIRECTIONS
- Put flour on a board; make a well in the center and add the water; mix into a soft, smooth dough and divide into 2 portions.
- Roll each portion very thin.
- Brush each with 1 tablespoon of oil; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt.
- Spread half the scallions evenly on each sheet.
- Roll each portion up like a jelly roll; coil it up so it's lying flat on the board in a spiral.
- Flatten with a rolling pin until it is 7-inches in diameter.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a small saute pan; add the cakes, one at a time, and fry 2 minutes on each side.
- Cut each cake into 8 wedges (I use a pizza cutter) and serve.
