SWEET POTATO-GREEN ONION PANCAKES WITH POACHED EGGS, HOLIDAY HAM AND PEPPER JAM

Steps:

• For the pancakes: Combine 4 cups cold water and 1 tablespoon kosher salt in a large bowl and stir until the salt dissolves. Stir in the sweet potato and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain, then dump onto a large piece of cheesecloth and wring out as much water as possible.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Whisk together the eggs, onion and some pepper in a large bowl. Add the sweet potato and flour, and mix until combined. Fold in the green onions.
• Heat a few tablespoons each of butter and oil until shimmering in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Using a scant 1/4 cup per pancake, add the sweet potato mixture to the pan, leaving some space in between. Flatten slightly and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels, then transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet and place in the oven for 5 minutes to finish cooking.
• For the eggs: Fill a high-sided skillet halfway with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat; add the vinegar. Line a plate with paper towels. Break each egg into a little ramekin or cup.
• One at a time, slip the eggs into the water, leaving space between them; adjust the heat to a bare simmer. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks still runny, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to paper towels to blot off the water.
• To serve: Put the pancakes on a serving platter. Top 4 of them with a smear of pepper jelly, a few slices of ham and a poached egg. Season with salt and pepper. Top with another pancake to make sandwiches (see Cook's Note).

HOISIN CHICKEN WITH QUICK PICKLED VEG AND GREEN ONION PANCAKES

Steps:

• For the pancakes: Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour in the boiling water and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and allow it to cool slightly. Knead the dough until smooth, about 2 minutes, adding more flour if needed. Cover with a clean kitchen towel to rest for 30 minutes.
• For the chicken: Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and scatter with the five spice. Add the sesame and canola oil to the pan and sear the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and transfer to a sheet pan.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the hoisin, soy, vinegar, ginger, garlic and toasted sesame seeds in a small bowl. Drizzle over the chicken then transfer to the oven. Cook for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened and the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
• For the pickles: Whisk together the vinegar, honey, fish sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil and sesame seeds in a large bowl. Add the carrots, cucumbers and green onions. Toss to coat and set aside.
• For the pancakes, place a stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Cut the dough into 16 equal pieces, and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep moist.
• Slightly flatten a piece of dough into an oval approximately 10 centimeters by 5 centimeters (about 4 by 2 inches) and scatter about a teaspoon of green onions to cover the surface. Roll the dough up starting at one long side to form a tight cylinder. Coil the cylinder into a tight spiral, resembling something like a tiny cinnamon bun and gently press the dough in your hand again to form a small disc. Return the now green onion-filled dough under the towel to rest, while you prepare the other pieces in the same way.
• Roll out a disc into a very thin circle on the floured work surface, approximately 12 to 14 centimeters (5 to 6 inches) round. Lightly oil both sides with sesame oil.
• Add to the heated pan and cook for about 30 seconds per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while you continue to roll and cook the remaining pancakes.
• To serve, slice the chicken into 1 centimeter (about 1/2-inch) thick slices and transfer to a platter along with the pickles and green onion pancakes.

ROASTED SHRIMP ON CHICK PEA PANCAKES WITH MANGO AND GREEN ONION

SHRIMP AND GREEN ONION MINI-PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch and salt; stir in 2 cups ice water until smooth. Beat in eggs just until blended. Stir in shrimp, onions and hot peppers.
• In a cast iron or non stick skillet, heat 1 T. of the oil at a time over medium heat. Drop in batter, 1 T. per pancake, and cook, turning once, until top is set and bottom is golden, about 6 minutes. Serve hot or at room termperature with sauce.
• Garlic Soy Sauce: In a small bowl, stir together soy sauce, vinegar, oil and garlic; set aside to serve with pancakes.

CHEESY GREEN ONION PANCAKES

Steps:

• Make your favourite recipe or pancake mix without adding the liquids. I used two cups of dry mix from a box.
• Add the cheese and onions.
• Add the liquids, using slightly more liquid than is required (about 1/4 cup more milk/water), and stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. Be sure to scrape the bottom as you mix or there will more than likely be dry stuff not mixed in - if you wait to find out and stir after, you risk the pancakes being dense from overstirring, which causes gluten to form. This should make enough batter for 7-8 pancakes (about 3-4 cups total). The mixture will be thick and lumpy, but this is a good thing!
• Scoop about 1/3 cup at a time into a non-stick or oiled frying pan set on medium-low heat.
• Cook pancakes, flipping over every few minutes. A good way to tell when a pancake is ready to flip is by the appearance of bubbles towards the middle of the batter. With this mix, the batter is too thick to wait that long and the pancakes should be flipped at the appearance of a few bubbles. It never hurts to do an "edge" check by lifting up the side of a pancake with a spatula to check the colour. A golden-brown signals that the cake can be flipped!
• Garnish with your favourite savoury topping and enjoy!

• For the confit duck legs: Crush the peppercorns and cloves with the side of a knife and rub, along with the salt, onto the duck legs. Press the garlic slices onto each duck leg. Break the bay leaves in half and press a half onto each piece of duck. Place the duck into a nonreactive container, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees F.
• Rinse the duck under cold water and pat dry. Place the duck legs in a 6-quart stockpot and completely submerge them in duck fat. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat on the stovetop and then place uncovered in the oven. Cook until the legs are completely tender and have settled on the bottom of the pot and the fat has become clear, 6 to 10 hours.
• Remove the duck legs from the oven and let them cool to room temperature in the pot.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Once cooled, remove the legs from the fat and place them in a baking pan in the oven, with the skin-side down. Roast until the legs are warmed through and the skin is crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.

GREEN ONION PANCAKES

Steps:

• Sift the all-purpose flour into a big bowl and then add the salt into the flour. Combine well and set aside. Bring the water to a boil. Slowly add the water to the flour and knead the dough until it's no longer sticky and the surface becomes smooth, about 10 minutes. If the dough is to dry, add 1 tablespoon of water to the dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes. Add the green onion into the dough. How to make the green onion pancakes: On a flat and floured surface divide the dough into 8 equal-sized pieces. Roll each piece of dough into a ball using your palm. Working with one dough ball at a time, roll the dough to a thin disc using a rolling pin. Dust the rolling pin with some all-purpose flour as you go. Brush the surface of the disc with the oil. Roll the dough into a cylinder. Coil it up like a snail. Dust the rolling pin with the flour and roll the dough until flat, measuring about 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter. Set the dough aside on a baking sheet. Repeat for the rest of the dough. Add about 1/4 inch (6 mm) of oil into a stir-fry pan or skillet over moderately high heat. Transfer a piece of pancake into the pan or skillet. Shallow fry each side of the pancake to a light golden brown, about 1 minute. Flip the pancake over and shallow fry the other side. Add more oil, repeat the same for the remaining pancakes and serve immediately.
