Sri Lankan Pancakes

Sri Lankan Pancakes

This is a sweet from Sri Lanka which is more suitable for tea time.
Pancakes are stuffed with a mixture of coconut & sugar. Also it doesn’t take much time to prepare this.

Recipe : Sri Lankan Pancakes

Ingredients (for about 7-8 pan cakes)

For Pancakes

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg – beaten

¼ tsp baking powder
Pinch of turmeric (optional)
salt to taste
1/2 cup coconut cream(milk)

 

For Filling: 

1/2 cup grated coconut.

About 3 tbspn of brown sugar (or to taste)

1 green cardamom crushed.

 Salt & Pepper to taste(optional)

Method:

Sift flour & baking powder together.

Add beaten egg & whisk well.Gradually add milk and make a batter.

Adjust salt & add a pinch of turmeric.

Whisk well & keep the batter aside for about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the filling.

Dissolve sugar in 2-3 tbspn water. Bring this sugar water mixture to boil in a pan in medium heat.

Then add the grated coconut & cardomom & mix well. Adjust salt & pepper (optional)

Keep aside to cool.

Making the Pancakes:

Before making the pancake, strain the batter to avoid any lumps. This will give smooth pancakes.

Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat for about 1 minute & coat it with a drop of cooking oil.

Once it is hot, spoon some batter on it & swirl the pan to distribute it evenly & to make a round shape.

Cook until lightly brown.

Remove to a plate.

Immediately spread about a spoon of filling onto cooked pan cake.

Then roll it.

Repeat with the remaining batter.

Serve hot & enjoy!!

Amy! these are known as Love Letters in Southern Kerala and I believe one of the ‘sweet’ dishes attributed to the Christian community! They did not add turmeric to it.
