Scallion meat patties are often seen in breakfast markets and can provide the necessary nutrition needed in the morning. Let’s take a look at the home-cooked method of making this popular delicacy, scallion meat patties.

1 First, we need to solve the dough part. If you make the dough yourself, add some salt to the dough as the basic seasoning for the dough. Mix the dough with warm water and let it rest for a while.

2 The meat part of the meat pie can be selected according to personal needs. Usually, we use ordinary pork belly and mash it into meat paste. The pork belly tastes more delicious with fat and lean meat. However, if you don't like to eat fat or pork, you can choose lean meat according to your needs. Of course, adding some shrimp or fish meat to the meat pie will be more exquisite, and the meat will be more delicious and juicy. Interested friends can also try it.

3. Add soy sauce, seasonings to remove the fishy smell, and sesame oil to the minced meat, mix well and set aside. When the dough has risen, you can start making it. Cut a small section of dough that is larger than a child's fist, flatten it, put the minced meat on it, and wrap it up like a bun. The method is simple and you don't have to worry about the appearance. Flatten the buns with the fillings again, put them in a pan, add oil and fry until both sides are golden brown.
