To make batter for this type of savoury pancake, I use Plain Flour, Potato Starch and Egg, just like ‘Tempura’ batter. You can use Plain Flour only, OR you may prefer Self-Raising Flour for softer texture. Today I made a large pancake and cut into bite-size pieces. Of course you can make smaller pancakes. Enjoy …
It seems many people are making Banana & Oats Pancakes. Some people use store-bought Oats Flour, some people grind Oats by themselves, and some people use a blender to make the batter. If you use Quick Oats, you don’t need to process Oats. I use my stick blender to make the batter slightly smoother, so …
Ukraine’s thin Pancakes are called ‘Mlyntsi’. Similar to France’s Crepes, ‘Mlyntsi’ can be sweet or savoury. I have my own ‘Mlyntsi’ recipe. Today I used Orange Juice instead of Milk, because I wanted to eat ‘Mlyntsi’ with ‘Orange Curd’ that I made a few days ago. The result was fantastic. I want to share how …
I have been using a lot of Parsley for cooking lately. The other day I cooked Asian flavoured ‘Parsley Pancake’. Today I cooked Potato Pancakes and I added a lot of Parsley to the mixture. It was delicious. I added firmly packed 1/2 cupful Parsley, which looked too much, but surprisingly Parsley flavour was not …
My Parsley in a plant pot has grown so well. Each leaf is very large and thick, and I have been trying to use the Parsley for cooking. Today I made this simple pancake. The batter is Tempura batter that I use for other vegetable pancakes. I am so glad that I tried. It was …
This is a variation of savoury Potato pancakes called ‘Potato Oyaki’ in Japanese. I often make ‘Potato Oyaki’ with Smoked Salmon. Any other fish could be used I supposed, and I tried with Canned Mackerel today. I am so glad I did. The pancakes were yummy. Grilled fresh Mackerel would be wonderful, but it’s hard …
This is actually the same thing as Onion ‘Kakiage’ Tempura. ‘Kakiage’ is a type of Tempura made with a variety of thinly sliced or chopped Vegetables and Seafood. The most popular ingredient is probably Onion. I pan-fried the mixture instead of deep-frying it. This humble Onion Pancake is very tasty. Makes 2 Servings Ingredients 1 …
Today I suddenly crave Gingerbread. I can’t remember when was the last time I ate it. I used to make it quite often when my children were young. Gingerbread is not hard to make but it is not quick & easy to make. I decided to make Gingerbread Flavoured Pancakes. As these pancakes are not …
Today is February 24, 2023. It’s been one year since Russia invaded Ukraine. Too many unthinkable horrible things have happened to the people in Ukraine and still happening. There was no single day I didn’t think about them. Today I cooked ‘Mlyntsi’ Ukrainian Thin Pancakes as I prayed for their victory and peace in Ukraine. …
Well… I wonder how many times I have tried to make Soufflé Pancakes. Every time, I got disappointed as my Soufflé Pancakes were not very tall and they shrank just like Soufflé. I tried many different recipes, altered the recipes, tried to add something that I believed might improve the hight such as Cream of …
I have a really good ‘Carrot Cake’ recipe. My family members started calling it Hiroko’s Legendary Carrot Cake, so I have named it ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’. Key ingredients include Pineapple and Sultanas. I added those to these pancakes. These pancakes are not very sweet, but they taste lovely. One day this recipe might be …
These are savoury pancakes that have unique rubbery texture similar to Mochi. You can make these Mochi Pancakes using Plain Flour only, but the texture would be slightly different. If you use Plain Flour only, alter the amount of Stock. The batter should be quite thin. These Enoki ‘Mochi’ Pancakes are great for snack OR …
