Tweak this lunch idea a hundred different ways to find your own flavour. The thin pancake makes a perfect jacket for a tasty meat filling. I use ground pork or beef and add paprika for an Eastern European flavour. Season your meat with your favorite spice or herb.
Ingredients:
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons sugar (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1/3 cup water
2 teaspoons melted butter or 2 teaspoons oil
1 lb ground meat, of your choice
1 cup chopped onion (or to taste)
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Blintz: Beat eggs and milk together.
2. Add flour, sugar, salt.
3. Add water and melted butter or oil.
4. Heat skillet or crepe pan medium/high heat. If needed, grease pan for each blintz.
5. Pour about 1/3 cup batter and tilt pan to cover bottom.
6. Blintz is done when bottom starts browning and top no longer looks wet. No need to flip.
7. Filling: Fry onion.
8. Add meat, cook well. If you like, add two tablespoons flour for consistency.
9. Add salt, pepper, or other seasonings.
10. Use 2-3 tablespoons filling for each blintz. Fold in 2 sides and roll up.
11. (I usually skip this next step) Bake in 400 oven 8-10 minutes or til brown.
12. Serve with sour cream!
