Ingredients

For the pancakes:
- 1/2 cup of flour
- 1 cup of milk
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 egg
- 10 g melted butter
- Salt and pepper to taste

For the filling:
- 6 eggs
- 4 slices of ham
- 1 green onion
- 1 handful of grated cheese
- 1 handful of chopped parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste

Necessary utensils
- Mixing bowls
- Pancake pan
- Spatula
- Ladle
- Wooden spoon
- Deep plate

Preparation steps

1. Preparing the dry ingredients: Start by combining the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix well with a whisk to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.

2. Mixing the liquid ingredients: In another bowl, beat the egg with the milk and melted butter. Add a pinch of pepper and mix well until the mixture becomes homogeneous. It is essential to ensure that the butter has cooled slightly before adding it, so as not to cook the egg.

3. Combining the ingredients: Pour the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients. Mix well with a whisk or spatula until you achieve a smooth composition. If you find it too thick, feel free to add a few tablespoons of milk to reach the desired consistency.

4. Cooking the pancakes: Grease the pan with a paper towel soaked in oil to prevent the pancakes from sticking. Use a ladle to pour the batter into the pan, forming an even circle. Let the pancake cook for about 1 minute, until it starts to bubble on the surface. Flip it with a spatula and let it brown on the other side for another 30 seconds. Continue the process until you finish all the batter – you should get about 6 pancakes.

5. Preparing the filling: In a separate pan, finely chop the green onion and cut the ham into suitable slices. Heat the pan and add the onion and ham, sautéing them until the onion becomes translucent and slightly soft. In a bowl, beat the 6 eggs with the chopped parsley, salt, and pepper, then add the mixture to the pan. Use a wooden spoon to stir until the eggs cook and become homogeneous.

6. Assembling the packages: Place a pancake on a deep plate. Put 2 tablespoons of omelette filling in the center of the pancake and fold it, forming a package. You can tie the package with a parsley leaf to give it an elegant touch.
