Hello everyone, I am Xiaoling. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Is there any custom of frying fried pancakes during the Chinese New Year? In our rural areas, we have to fry some pancakes before the Chinese New Year. Haha, I don’t know the specific custom. I I remember when I was a kid, my mother would add alum to the fried pancakes to make them very soft. At that time, I didn’t know whether it was healthy or not, as long as it tasted good, I was very greedy when I was young. I have learned a lot since I learned how to cook food. It’s not healthy. No matter how delicious the food is, we don’t use it anymore because health is the most important thing. But nowadays, the fried cakes and dough sticks bought outside still contain aluminum-free baking powder and baking soda, so we should eat less of them.

Today Xiaoling shares a recipe for home-made pancakes. It does not require baking powder or baking soda. It is fluffy, soft, delicious, healthy, clean and hygienic. Come with me to see the steps.

Ingredients required: plain flour, salt, yeast powder, eggs, warm water, cooking oil

Detailed steps

1. First pour 400 into a large bowl For ordinary flour, add 3 grams of salt and 4 grams of yeast powder, then break in 2 eggs, use chopsticks to break up the eggs, and knead the dough with 200 ml of warm water at about 30 degrees Celsius.

2. Stir while pouring, and stir until it becomes a large dough, then pour in 30 ml of cooking oil. The dough of the deep-fried pancakes must be soft, so that the pancakes will not become soft even if they are cold. Will be hard.

3. Knead it into a softer dough like this, cover it with plastic wrap and seal it until it doubles in size.

4. When the dough is ready and honeycomb tissue is visible, apply cooking oil on the panel in advance. Place the risen dough on the panel and rub it to remove the gas inside.

5. Shape it into a long strip and divide it into uniformly sized dough pieces. Press each dough piece into a round cake shape with your hands, and make two cuts on it like this.

6. Heat the oil in the pan to 50% to 60% and fry until the pancake floats, then turn it over and fry over medium heat until the pancake is evenly heated.

7. Fry until golden brown, then take it out to control the oil. Our home-made pancakes are ready. Eat them while they are hot. The outside will be a little crispy, but the inside will be very soft and hollow.
