Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 g all-purpose flour
- 500 ml milk
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 300 g ground beef
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.25 tsp ground nutmeg
- 0.5 tsp paprika powder
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, and salt to form a smooth pancake batter. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter. Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan, swirling it around to spread evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter to make 6-8 pancakes. Set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
Season the meat mixture with nutmeg, paprika powder, black pepper, and salt to taste. Stir well to combine.
Remove the skillet from heat and mix in the chopped fresh parsley.
To assemble, spoon a portion of the meat filling onto one side of each pancake. Fold the other side over to encase the filling, forming a semi-circle.
Optional: Lightly pan-fry the filled pancakes in a touch of butter for 1-2 minutes on each side until crispy, or serve them as is.
Serve warm with a side salad or dipping sauce of your choice.
