easy scallion pancakes

i spent the week end running through as many foodie blogs as possible.
it's amazing how many there are and the amount of time people have to nourrish their blogs. I must be in the wrong business...
anyway, one of the most common recipie when it comes to chinese food,is the scallion pancake.
piss easy to make, and yet so hard to get right.
mix 2 cups of flower and 1 cup of warm water.
Knead and let rest for a quater of an hour.
chop up a bunch of scallion as thinly as possible.
... 15 minutes later...
devide the pastry into 5 or 6 balls.
Flatten them out, then spread out some sesame oil & soya sauce over the surface.
sprinkle the scallion generously.
roll the pancake up.
once you have your long 'sausage', roll that up into a spiral, and flatten the whole thing out again.
fry on both sides for a couple of minutes...
yum
the next step would be to use the pancakes as a burrito and stff it with a stir fry of some sort.
