Ingredients
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 250 milliliters milk
- 3 eggs
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
Step 2
Sift the flour into the bowl with the wet ingredients. Add the salt, and whisk until you achieve a smooth batter. Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense texture.
Step 3
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
Step 4
Pour about half of the batter into the skillet, ensuring it spreads evenly to create a thin pancake layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom sets and starts to turn golden brown.
Step 5
Using a spatula, tear the pancake into irregular, bite-sized pieces while it’s still in the skillet. Continue to cook, tossing and stirring the scraps, for another 2-3 minutes until they are crispy and slightly browned on the edges.
Step 6
Remove the pancake scrapings from the skillet and set them aside on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding the second tablespoon of butter to the skillet.
Step 7
Once all the pancake pieces are cooked, garnish them with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm as a side dish or snack.
