In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Gradually pour in hot water while stirring with chopsticks until a shaggy dough forms. Add cold water and knead until a smooth dough forms.

Cover the dough and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

Divide the dough into 2 portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion into a thin rectangle. Brush with a little oil and sprinkle with half of the scallions.

Roll the dough up tightly like a jelly roll, then coil it into a spiral. Flatten the spiral with your palm and then roll it out again into a round pancake.

Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the pancake for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.

While the pancake is cooking, fry the eggs to your desired doneness.

Serve the scallion pancake immediately with the fried egg on top.
