Total time: 45 minutes
Number of servings: 8

Ingredients

For pancake sheets:
- 2 eggs
- 250 ml milk
- 250 ml sparkling water
- 100 ml oil
- 300-350 g flour

For the filling:
- 500 g minced beef
- 1 large onion
- 3 boiled eggs
- 100 g peas (fresh or frozen)
- 2 small carrots
- 1 bell pepper
- 1 bunch of fresh dill
- salt, pepper, thyme to taste
- 3-4 tablespoons olive oil

For decoration:
- 100 g grated cheese

Preparation

1. Preparing the pancake sheets: In a large bowl, whisk the two eggs with a whisk or mixer. Add the milk, sparkling water, and oil, mixing well. Gradually incorporate the flour, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. The batter should be fluid but not too thin. Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes.

2. Preparing the pancakes: In a non-stick skillet, heat a little oil. Pour a ladle of pancake batter into the skillet and tilt the skillet to evenly cover the bottom. Fry the pancake for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden. Repeat the process until you finish all the batter, yielding 8 pancakes.

3. Preparing the filling: In a skillet, add 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil and sauté the finely chopped onion until it becomes translucent. Add the grated carrots and peas, continuing to sauté for 5 minutes. Then, add the minced meat, salt, pepper, and thyme, and cook until the meat is well done. Let the mixture cool slightly, then add the chopped dill and finely chopped boiled eggs.

4. Assembling the rolls: On each pancake sheet, spread some of the meat mixture, making sure to leave a little space at the edges. Roll the pancake tightly, then repeat with the other sheets.

5. Baking: Place the rolls in a greased baking dish. Sprinkle grated cheese on top and place the dish in the preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for about 15 minutes, until the cheese melts and becomes slightly golden.

6. Serving: The meat roll in pancake sheets can be served warm or cold. A delicious recommendation would be to accompany it with a spicy tomato sauce, which will add extra flavor. This combination will make each bite a true explosion of flavors!

Frequently asked questions
