This time i attempted a special recipes and these pancakes came out super fluffy and delicious! Normally our household would be crying for blueberry pancakes but since they're a touch difficult to source here in Turkey, I opted for savory pancakes instead.
So after a long week in the office, I slept for 14 hours only to wake up on Saturday midday. Got out of bed and into my yoga pants only to walk the puppy and make some pancakes. After that, we snug back into bed with our iPads and books (honestly, who was I kidding… I didn’t last 5 minutes reading before my eyes fell shut again!) and took another snooze for 2 hours. It was a beautiful day out and usually I would feel bad for missing a beautiful day. But this Saturday I didn’t care. I got rest, I had pancakes and got to snuggle the puppy. Every now then , you only need these quite days!
Ingredients:
Pancakes:
– 2 cups white rice flour
– 2 cups buttermilk or kefir
– 1 tbsp baking powder
– 2 eggs
– a pinch of salt
– juice of 1 lime
Topping:
– 2 cups mixed mushrooms of your liking
– 1/4 cup spring onions
– 1 dried tomato
– 1 tsp unsalted butter
– salt, pepper
– 2 eggs
– 1/4 cup cheese (of your liking)
Method:
Topping:
1. Cut the mushrooms and dried tomato into small pieces and slice the spring onions into thin slices
2. Put into a pan with 1tsp of butter. Season with salt and pepper and sauté for a few minutes.
3. To poach eggs, bring a pan of water to the boil with 1 tbsp of vinegar. Once the water is boiling, gently crack the eggs into the vinegar water, one egg at a time. Cook for about 5 minutes, then remove the eggs from the water with a big spoon. Don’t leave the eggs in the warm water, otherwise the yolk will continue to cook and your eggs won’t be runny.
5. Grate the cheese and set aside.
Pancakes:
1. Mix all ingredients together and whisk well.
2. Heat a pan with butter and form little pancakes. Cook on both sides until golden. Stack on a plate.
Top the pancakes with the mushroom mix, then add the poached egg and some of the grated cheese.
