Ed and Cher: Savory Onion Pancake with Egg Fillings

Today after work I suddenly got in the mood of cooking up something. So after my walk on the field I decided to make a savory pancake for breakfast.

I'll try and briefly explain the ingredients and method of making this.

2 big onions
2 cloves of garlic
Sage
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
Salt
Pepper
3 eggs + 4 eggs
Milk
Salad Cream

First step, grab yourself your sunglasses to wear as you'll be cutting onions.

Then blend the onions and garlic and put to a bowl.

Boil your eggs, depends how much egg fillings you want. Here I boiled 10 eggs as I want going to feed an army.

Now to make the pancake mix. Take 4 cups of flour in a bowl mixer. Make a hole in the middle and break 3 eggs into it. Add in 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence and a dash of sage spice. Add in salt and pepper to taste. With a whisk spoon stir and beat the ingredients until it comes into a thick mixture. Pour in milk to dilute the mixture and slowly add in your blended onions and garlic mix. Keep on stirring, adding in the milk until you get a not so watery texture. Something like a lassi drink texture.

Put your pancake mixture aside and head on to make your egg fillings. With the boiled eggs take of the shell and give it a mash with some lemon juice, salad cream, salt and pepper to taste. The egg fillings are suppose to taste like those egg sandwich you eat but with a pinch of sourness.

Once the egg filling is ready, it is now time to cook your pancake mix. Prepare a non stick pan, heat it up and have a bowl of butter nearby. Once the pan is hot put in abit of butter to coat the pan. Then pour in a bit of the pancake mix on the pan. You have to use the other hand to turn the pan around so that the pancake mix will nicely cover the pan and form a nice circle pancake. You need to be fast here. Repeat the steps until you finish all of your pancake mixture.

This is how it looks when your cooking the pancake

On a table place your egg fillings and cooked pancakes to cool. Then take a circle pancake, cut it into two and nicely line the egg fillings near the end. You would the need to fold the half pancake into a popiah like shape. How much egg fillings you want in each popiah shaped pancakes depends on you. However a tip: try to put alot of egg fillings in your popiah as less fillings gives your pancake not much taste.
