Ingredients

For the pancakes:
- 12 pancakes (classic pancake recipe)
- 4 eggs (for the filling)
- 1 handful of wheat flour (about 70g)
- Salt (to taste)
- Pepper (to taste)
- A little chopped dill (optional)

For the filling:
- About 1 kg of organs for liver pudding (liver, lungs, kidneys, etc.)
- 100 ml of milk (for the sauce on top)

Preparing the Pancakes

1. Preparing the pancake batter: In a large bowl, beat 4 eggs with a pinch of salt. Gradually add the flour, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Add water or milk until you achieve a smooth consistency, similar to sour cream. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.

2. Baking the pancakes: In a well-heated pan, grease with a little oil and pour a ladle of batter. Cook the pancake on one side until golden, then flip it over. Repeat the process until you finish the batter. Place the pancakes on a plate and cover them with a towel to keep warm.

Preparing the Liver Pudding Filling

3. Preparing the filling: The boiled and chopped organs are mixed well in a bowl. Add the 4 eggs, flour, salt, pepper, and chopped dill. Mix everything until you achieve a smooth consistency. Taste the filling and adjust the spices to your preference.

Filling the Pancakes

4. Filling the pancakes: Take a pancake and place a portion of filling on one side. Fold the pancake in half or roll it, depending on your preference. Place the filled pancakes in a baking dish, side by side.

Preparing the Sauce and Baking

5. Preparing the sauce: In a small bowl, beat one egg with 100 ml of milk. Pour this sauce evenly over the filled pancakes in the dish.

6. Baking in the oven: Preheat the oven to 180°C and place the dish with pancakes inside. Leave them in the oven for about 20 minutes or until the sauce is nicely browned.

Serving and Suggestions

7. Serving the pancakes: Remove the dish from the oven and let the pancakes cool slightly before serving. They pair wonderfully with a side of sour cabbage salad, which will add a pleasant contrast of acidity.

Practical Tips

- Care for the ingredients: Ensure that the organs are well-cooked and prepared correctly before using them in the filling. You can also use leftover organs from other dishes, not just from liver pudding.
- Variations: You can add various vegetables to the filling, such as sautéed onions or grated carrots, for added flavor. You can also replace dill with parsley or other herbs.
- Storage: Leftover pancakes can be kept in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. They can be reheated in the oven or in a pan.

Nutritional Benefits

This recipe is not only delicious but also nutritious. The organs are rich in proteins, vitamins (such as B12), and minerals (iron, zinc). The pancakes provide carbohydrates that offer energy, while the eggs contain healthy fats and proteins.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I use other types of fillings? Absolutely! Pancakes can be filled with cheese, mushrooms, or vegetables, depending on your preferences.
2. How can I make the pancakes lower in calories? You can use whole wheat flour and skim milk to reduce calories.
3. What drinks pair well with this dish? A dry white wine or freshly made tomato juice can perfectly complement this dish.
