To make pancakes on kulesh, you can specially cook millet porridge, but it is better to remember this recipe when after a meal a certain amount of it remains uneaten. Sweet millet porridge, thick or viscous, and unsweetened kulesh with lard and onions are also suitable.

The other day I had one glass of millet left, and I happily baked pancakes using it.

The easiest way is to use dry yeast, which is added along with all the ingredients. Live yeast must first be dissolved in a small amount of milk, then combined with flour and then added to the millet part of the dough.

Despite the fact that the dough is yeasty, fluffy and somewhat thick, the pancakes can be of any thickness at your request: either thin or fluffy. Adjust the amount of sugar in the dough to your own taste, but I recommend much less, especially if you plan to serve it with jam or condensed milk. They say that you can't ruin your porridge with butter, but your figure can. completely)) So, also select the butter for the dough at your own discretion, but it still tastes better when it is taken at 100 g. Kulesh pancakes are also suitable for stuffing with meat, chicken, mushroom and other entrails.

If you want to bake these pancakes for breakfast, it is better to prepare the dough the night before.

Prepare the ingredients according to the list.

Cook the required amount of millet or decide how much you have ready. I have one glass.

Combine the porridge with eggs and milk, warm or at room temperature, salt and sugar. Stir. It is especially convenient to mix using a mixer or blender; the mass will be homogeneous and the grains of millet will be crushed.

Melt the butter and pour in next. Stir.

I use dry yeast designed to be added to flour.

Combine the flour part with the milk and millet part.

Stir thoroughly and leave for about half an hour in a warm place or at room temperature.

Appropriate bubbles should appear on the surface of the dough.

Fry the pancakes in a frying pan on both sides. The amount of dough for one pancake may vary depending on whether you want thin or fluffy pancakes.

Thick yeast pancakes on kulesh (with millet porridge)

Friday, March 1, 2019

Fluffy and airy, like a cloud, soft and tender, fragrant and so tasty pancakes according to a proven recipe. If you have never tried yeast pancakes on kulesh, be sure to cook them and enjoy their magical taste. I'm sure it will be love at first bite.

Now I have prepared an extremely detailed step-by-step recipe for thick pancakes that we will prepare with yeast. Before you start making them, be sure to read all the tips that I will share with you. Attention to details and aspects is the key to truly fabulously tasty, aromatic and chic pancakes, just like grandma’s in the village!

So, thick pancakes include kulesh. This is millet porridge, which we simply boil in water until completely cooked. In addition, in addition to wheat flour, the recipe also contains semolina. By the way, neither millet nor semolina are felt in the finished pancakes, but at the same time they make the dough virtually weightless.

You can use milk of any fat content (I took 3.2%) - the higher the fat, the tastier and more filling the millet pancakes. Pressed (fresh, wet) yeast can be replaced with dry or instant yeast (about 7 grams is enough - that’s 2 level teaspoons). I will tell you about yeast in detail in the step-by-step recipe.

We use fairly large chicken eggs (in my case, group C-0, each weighing about 60 grams). Take 3 or even 4 small ones. Sunflower oil is necessary for making thick pancakes - any other unrefined oil, in other words without flavor, will do. We will grease ready-made pancakes with butter, so we use it only if desired.

I don’t recommend changing the amount of sugar in the recipe - when prepared, pancakes on kulesh turn out to be quite neutral in taste, so they can be served with both sweet and savory insides. Why is there baking soda slaked with vinegar in pancake dough if there is yeast? So that the pancakes are even more bubbly and airy.

From the indicated amount of ingredients used, 10 huge and thick pancakes come out (18 cm in diameter and about 1.7-2 cm in width). Such pancakes are most delicious, of course, from the heat of the heat - warm, right after they are made. On the second day they are also not bad, I just advise you to store them in an airtight container, and be sure to reheat them, for example, in a microwave oven before serving.

Millet pancake cake

Not enough people understand that our grandmothers and great-grandmothers made true masterpieces of culinary art - cakes - from pancakes on kulesh.

You just had to show your imagination.

Yeast thick pancakes on kulesh, like grandma's

Our grandmothers could eat their pancakes with dignity. They came out delicious, smooth, with lots of holes and very, very tasty. Anyone who tried these culinary masterpieces was left in ecstasy.

They prepared even capricious and complex dishes, like pancakes on kulesh, with ease, and the result was always impeccable. I would like to share with you one of my grandmother’s recipes, according to which these pancakes came out the first time.

Ingredients:

millet – 1 tbsp.;
eggs – 2 pcs.;
flour – 150 g;
milk – 150 ml;
sugar – 2 tbsp;
dry yeast – 1 tsp;
vegetable oil (for greasing) – 3 tbsp;
salt – 1 tsp.

How to cook pancakes on kulesh

We prepare the necessary ingredients. Sift the flour through a sieve to enrich it with oxygen. Heat the milk until warm.

Cook millet in water in a ratio of 1:3. The cereal must be completely boiled. Therefore, if you feel that there is not enough water during the cooking process, add it slightly.

While the cereal is cooking, let's create a dough. Add a tablespoon of flour, salt, dry yeast to warm milk and mix. Leave the dough in a warm place (approximately 10-15 minutes) until an airy foam cap forms.

Add eggs and sugar to the cooled millet porridge.

To obtain a more homogeneous structure, beat the mass with a blender.

Next, add the dough to the porridge and stir until smooth.

Add flour in several stages. We should end up with a thick pancake batter.

Leave it in a warm place until it grows 2-3 times in volume. To do this, pour the dough into another container so that it does not run away.

Let's start baking pancakes from the finished dough. To do this, heat the frying pan well and grease it with vegetable oil. Place the dough in the middle of the pan using a ladle.

This dough does not pour into the pan {by itself}, so it is necessary to spread it over the surface. Fry the pancake for about 1-2 minutes.
