This is a Chinese dish that is used all over Asia; it would be the equivalent of a naan bread. Simple ingredients but requiring some elbow grease. This pancake makes a great platform for other dishes. I used it with a teriyaki and ginger snap pork loin and added a little hoisin sauce. I hope you like it
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (more for counter)
1/2 cup pasta flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup scallions

2 tablespoons oil, divided
1 teaspoon Chinese 5 spice
In bowl mix both flours and salt.
