Step 1
1. Before preparing the meat-filled pancake pie, make a white sauce. To do this, fry the flour in melted butter in a skillet. In a separate container, heat the cream. Slowly pour the cream into the fried flour, stirring constantly. Add salt, ground pepper, and nutmeg. Quickly and thoroughly mix to prevent lumps from forming as the sauce thickens.

2. Chop a small onion and fry it in oil. Transfer to a plate. Add more oil to the skillet, then add the mushrooms. When the liquid has evaporated, add the white mushrooms. After a couple of minutes, crush in the garlic and return the fried onion. Mix everything together and remove from heat.
