Carrot pancakes with cheese
Ingredients:
- carrots - 1-2 pieces;
- wheat flour (can be mixed with oatmeal) - about 1 cup with a capacity of 250 ml;
- milk - 1 glass;
- kefir - 1-0.5 cups;
- Chicken egg - 1-2 pcs .;
- dry ground spices (a little cinnamon or vanilla, but not together; grated nutmeg);
- a piece of fat to lubricate the frying pan.
Preparation
Three carrots on a small grater (in a bowl). We add eggs and spices. There we sift flour and, gradually pouring milk and yogurt, knead the dough (the density should be like that of liquid sour cream). Well mix with a whisk, fork or mixer so that there are no lumps. We are waiting for about 10 minutes, we warm up a medium-sized frying pan with a handle and a low rim (it is better to take cast iron, aluminum or with a ceramic covering). A piece of fat is pinned on a fork and grease them with a frying pan - so pancakes will be baked, and not to be fried, like in oil.
Pour a little dough, evenly distributing it in a frying pan. Bake a pancake with a coup to evenly brown it on both sides. It's clear, carrot pancakes will get a little thicker than usual without fillers.
We serve carrot pancakes with grated cheese: sprinkle a pancake with cheese, fold or fold, take with hands and eat. It is good to serve sour cream or thick cream (for better assimilation of carrots you need some fat). If children older than 5 years, it will be useful to season sour cream with paprika and chopped garlic (this will be much more useful for children than pour sugar on pancakes).
This dish can be served with tea, cocoa, compote, rooibos (by the way, a very useful drink, children will like), hibiscus, milk or various sour-milk drinks. When serving with milk drinks, do not forget about fresh herbs (parsley, coriander, basil, dill).
