Crepes with boiled meat
Description
Celebrating one of the most fun holidays of the departing winter—Maslenitsa, everyone makes pancakes. A pancake is a symbol of the sun, which on the eve of spring’s arrival shines ever warmer and brighter. There are countless pancake recipes. Today I have one of the simplest. And for the filling—meat, which can be any kind. There’s nothing complicated about the preparation. But I want to give a few tips. Place the finished pancakes on a plate and cover the hot ones with a lid. This way the edges of the pancakes won’t dry out and will stay soft. It’s more convenient to cook pancakes in a non‑stick skillet. Grease a regular skillet with oil before each pancake. Using the listed amount of ingredients yields 18–20 pancakes. The diameter of my skillet is 17 centimeters.
