- serves 4-6 people
- preparation 10 minutes
- cooking 15 minutes
- difficulty Easy level
Ingredients
- 100 g weak (soft) wheat flour
- 5 eggs
- 550 ml milk
- 300 g salt pork or bacon, sliced or cut into sticks
- good pinch of salt
- butter, for frying
- sugared lingonberries, to serve
Instructions
Combine the flour, eggs, salt and half the milk in a mixing bowl and whisk until no lumps remain. Add the rest of the milk, whisking continuously.
Heat a little butter in a frying pan or skillet and add a generous amount of the pork or bacon batons. Fry until they start to brown a little, then ladle in some batter. You are aiming to get 4–6 pancakes in total, so divide the pork and batter accordingly.
Fry the pancake until the underside is golden, then turn and fry on the other side. Keep warm while you fry the remaining pancakes and serve with your choice of accompaniments.
