PANCAKES WITH ALMOND & VEG FILLING

Hello everyone! Me and my crew are so busy with the new project of making my new webpage that I don't have much time to post here, but soon I'll be able to share it with you. Until then let's get cookin' !

This is one of the simple dish that I ate for my lunch.
Let's see the recipe. :)

INGREDIENTS:
¤_¤ 60 grams /0.6 cup/9.66 tablespoon of white wheat soft flour
¤_¤ 60 grams /0.6 cup/9.66 tablespoon of white wheat sharp flour
¤_¤ 300 millilitres (ml) /1.3 cup of cold milk
¤_¤ 2 egg whites
¤_¤ Pinch of salt
¤_¤ 70 grams/0.3 cup/5.2 tablespoon of baking oil
¤_¤ 20 grams/0.2 cup/3.7 tablespoon of roughly ground almonds

PREPARATION of PANCAKE MIXTURE
Sift the flour, pour 150 ml / 0.6 cup / of milk into, add 2 eggs, salt, then stir it all together. Now pour the rest of the milk into and stir it until you get smooth texture, without lumps. At the end add roughly ground almonds in it. If the pancake mixture is to watery add little more flour, if the mixture is too thick add little more milk to it.
Leave the mixture to rest for half an hour.

Meanwhile cook: carrots, kohlrabi (German turnip), few leaves of kale, little cauliflower and peas. Cook all together for no more than 10 minutes (Al Dente) then peel 2 cloves of garlic and put it at the end on the vegetables.

Now you are ready to bake pancakes. Heat the pan, when it’s hot enough pour a spoon table size of drop into, then pour a mixture for pancakes into the pan and spread it equally, to get a nice thin circle. If you want you can make thicker width size of pancakes, as you wish them to be. To maintain them warmth for some time, put them on a plate that is heated with water vapour from another bowl underneath.


After you’re done with baking pancakes you can start filling them with cooked vegetables, in which we add a little minced garlic and roll. At the end you can sprinkle them with some chestnut honey. Serve almond pancakes stuffed with vegetables with green salad.


If you want you can stuff your pancakes with any other stuffing, like cooked vegetables with béchamel sauce (known as white sauce) and put them into oven to bake, at the end put some sour cream on it.

Instead of adding almond into pancake mixture you can replace it with cooked spinach and get spinach pancakes with vegetables.

When you wish to have a tender pancake mixture add some siphon, mineral water or beer to it.

Honey gives velvety taste to a pancake.

BON APETIT!
