Combo Fried rice and Chinese Scallion pancakes with Spicy Soy Sauce

Rex told me that he likes sticky white rice, so I made that first, then used it to fry up, but it ended up kind of mushy... sorry about that!

So I cooked the rice first. In a large pan I sauteed 2 onions and 4 stalks of celery, along with about 8 cloves of garlic. Once those were nice and soft I added in 3 cut up chicken breasts and cooked until they were done, then I added some of the left over marinated beef from last week that I had frozen, 1 bag of frozen shrimp and a can of mixed vegetables. I heated up coconut oil in a wok then fried the rice with soy sauce and sesame oil. I mixed in the meat and veggie mixture when the rice was cooked through.

For the Scallion Pancakes:

2 cups GF flour

1 Tbsp sesame oil

1 Tbsp vegetable oil

1 tsp salt

2 Tbsp sesame seeds

1/2 cup scallions

Place flour in a food processor, While motor is running add in 1/2 cup warm water ( I had to add about double the water called for, since GF flour needs a lot more moisture to work well) until a slightly sticky dough forms. Dump onto a floured surface and kneed until uniform and smooth, about 3 minutes. Cover with a damp rag and let sit for at least 30 minutes.

Combine sesame oil, vegetable oil and salt in a small bowl. Cut dough in half, then each half in 3 equal pieces. Form each into a ball and work with 1 ball at a time (keep the others covered with the damp rag). Roll out onto a well floured surface into a thin circle about 1/16 inch thick. Spread a tsp of the oil mixture evenly on the pancake, then sprinkle with sesame seeds and 1 Tbsp scallions. Roll up from one end like a jelly roll, then coil roll around to form a spiral; pinch end so roll stays in place. Press spiral with your palm to flatten it, then roll out pancake to 1/8 inch thick. Set pancake in pan with hot oil and saute until golden, about 1 minute. Flip and repeat on other side.

For dipping sauce:

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup rice wine vinegar

1/4 cup scallions

2 tsp freshly minced ginger

2 tsp sugar

red pepper flakes

combine all ingredients except chillis in a small bowl. stir in sugar until just dissolved. Add chillis at the last minute before serving; the longer they are in the hotter it gets.
