Ingredients

• 500 grams beef bones
• 1 large onion
• 2 medium carrots
• 2 stalks celery stalks
• 4 stems parsley stems
• 1 leaf bay leaf
• 10 pieces black peppercorns
• 2 liters water
• 2 large eggs
• 250 milliliters milk
• 125 grams all-purpose flour
• 20 grams butter
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Start by making the beef broth. Rinse the beef bones under cold water and place them in a large stockpot.

Step 2

Peel the onion, carrots, and celery. Cut the carrots and celery into large chunks. Halve the onion.

Step 3

Add the onion, carrots, celery, parsley stems, bay leaf, and black peppercorns to the stockpot.

Step 4

Pour 2 liters of water into the pot and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface using a slotted spoon.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and let the broth simmer gently for 2.5 to 3 hours. Occasional skimming may be needed.

Step 7

While the broth simmers, prepare the pancake batter. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, and salt until smooth and lump-free.

Step 8

Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stove, and whisk it into the pancake batter.

Step 9

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil.

Step 10

Pour a thin layer of the batter into the skillet, tilting it to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the pancake sets and the edges release from the pan.

Step 11

Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until lightly golden. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the cooked pancakes on a plate.

Step 12

Once the broth is done, strain it through a fine mesh sieve and discard the solids. Season with salt to taste.

Step 13

Stack the pancakes and roll them into a tight log. Slice the roll into thin strips to create ribbons.

Step 14

To serve, divide the pancake strips evenly into soup bowls. Ladle the hot beef broth over the top.

Step 15

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.
