Homemade fat cakes (Hohhot specialty snacks)
Overview
During pregnancy, I was always picky about food. If I didn't eat a good meal, I would get pregnancy symptoms, and I would feel very unhappy. Now that I am four months pregnant, my pregnancy reactions have diminished, and my appetite has improved, but I am still very picky about food. Now I really miss the delicious food my mother cooked for me, especially the taste of my childhood (my mother is the master chef in our family, haha). For example, I ate Dongdong some time ago (I will share it with you later). I ate six of them at one time and it was very appetizing (haha, don’t laugh at my appetite). In the past few days, I have been thinking about eating fat pancakes. I went back to my parents' house and asked my mother to cook them. They were thin and crunchy. I ate 3 pieces in one go. I was in a great mood. I even rushed to wash the pot with my mother. Haha~ Let me quickly introduce this delicious snack to you!

Ingredients
Steps
-
Chop the green onions (boil a pot of water first while chopping the green onions, you will need to mix them with the noodles later).
-
Chop the pork fat into cubes (because I saw that there was a lot of fat left over after the New Year and no one wanted to eat it, I thought of making fat pancakes. When I was a kid, I used gall oil, which is lard. The lard here is not the lard from roasting fat meat, but the pig’s own oil, so the lard will taste better).
-
Put the chopped fat and chopped green onions together.
-
Sprinkle appropriate amount of five-spice powder, salt, and chili powder if you want it spicy.
-
Allow the boiled water to cool slightly and knead the noodles until the water temperature reaches about 70 degrees, which is enough to feel slightly hot to the touch. After mixing the dough, sprinkle a little baking soda, and the cake will become soft and soft. Remember not to mix it with the dough first and then mix it with water, otherwise the hot water will burn the soda.
-
Roll out the reconciled dough thinly.
-
Spread the evenly mixed fat on the dough.
-
Roll up the whole thing.
-
Cut into pieces.
-
Be sure to pinch the two sections of the dough to prevent it from leaking out when placed in the pot and causing the pancake to become incomplete.
-
Put the rolled out pancake directly into the preheated pan. Using a non-stick pan will work best. Mom uses an electric pot here, and people who are not skilled in the technology may not be able to master it well. Remember not to put oil in the pot, because the fat will produce oil when it is preheated.
-
Flip the pancake over and continue frying.
-
I couldn't wait for the first cake. It was crispy, thin and fragrant. While my mother was making it, I tore it into pieces and ate it.
-
Tear a piece off and take a bite while it's hot. It's fragrant but not greasy, crispy and crispy, and it's so fragrant.
