The photo presents the products needed to prepare pancakes with kefir, green onions, and egg. Kefir can be replaced with homemade thick buttermilk.
- kefir 2.5% - 1 cup (200 ml);
- flour - 1 cup;
- egg - 1 piece;
- baking soda - 1/3 tsp;
- salt - 1/3 tsp;
- sugar - 1 tsp;
- onion - 1 piece;
- green onion - 40 g;
- vegetable oil - 2 tbsp.
Preparation
- Crack a raw chicken egg into a bowl, adding 1 teaspoon of sugar and a pinch of salt.
- Using a whisk, mix the ingredients in the bowl.
- For the pancakes, take kefir with 2.5% fat or buttermilk. If the dairy product is from the refrigerator, warm it to room temperature. Pour the warmed kefir into the egg mixture, mixing all the ingredients in the bowl.
- As always, when preparing the dough, sift the flour through a sieve. Then add it in portions to the dough, mixing with a whisk until smooth. Break up all the lumps of flour with the whisk.
- In the batter for pancakes, we add not only green onions but also sautéed onions, which will give the pancakes a special aroma. Fry the onion in advance so that it has time to cool. To do this, cut the onion into quarters, and then slice each quarter into thin strips. Fry the onion until golden and then let it cool.
- Add the cooled sautéed onions to the batter.
- Finely chop the green onion feathers. Add the chopped onion to the dough, followed by 1/3 tsp. of baking soda. Now mix the batter thoroughly with the onion and soda. The batter should be thick. If it turned out runny, add more flour. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
- When the batter has rested, without mixing it, we start frying the pancakes. For this, pour vegetable (refined) oil into the frying pan and place it on medium heat. Use a tablespoon to scoop the batter and pour a portion into the heated oil. After frying one side of the pancakes, flip them over. To make the pancakes fluffy, and ensure the center is cooked through, you can cover the pan with a lid at this stage. The lid must have a hole to prevent condensation, which would cause oil to splatter from the pan.
- Remove excess fat by placing the pancakes on paper towels.
- Serve the finished pancakes with kefir, green onions, and egg hot. Pancakes with onion topping can be served with sour cream, but they are also tasty by themselves, without sour cream.
Even when cooled, the pancakes remain fluffy, tender, and delicious.
