HUNGARIAN CRÉPES Magyar Palacsinta
|
4 eggs
|
1 ¾ cup milk
|
1 ¼ cup flour
|
1 tbsp sugar
|
¼ cup butter, melted
|
½ tsp salt
|
|
COTTAGE CHEESE FILLING TürosTöltelék
|
1 lb dry, pressed cottage cheese
|
1/4 tsp salt
|
2 egg yolks
|
½ tsp vanilla extract
|
½ cup sugar
|
½ tsp grated lemon peel
|
|
1 egg
|
4 tbsp flour (1/4 cup)
|
|
Beat egg and slowly add flour 1 spoon at a time using a fork to ensure it is smooth. Create a
slack dough. Using a small teaspoon, scrape into boiling salted water. Dumplings will pop to top of water –
boil another 3-5 minutes. Drain, rinse and add to soup.
HINT: (Some recipes instruct to boil the Nokedli in the soup, but this makes the soup starchy and cloudy.)
Beat eggs and sugar until frothy, add salt and milk, beat in flour slowly, until very smooth, then
add remaining milk to have a very thin batter. Let stand overnight in fridge, or at least 1 hour before frying. Stir
briskly after removing from fridge. Add more milk or water to ensure a smooth batter.
Either use a non-stick crépe pan (10”) or butter griddle and heat to sizzling point. Pour ¼ cup of batter in griddle
and swish around (back and forth – rocking motion) until the entire bottom of pan
is covered. When lightly brown with a flat crépe spatula, turn over and brown. Remove and keep warm. After each
Suzette, always drizzle a little more oil or butter. Makes 12-16 thin, crisp crépes. Depending on your skill – you
will get a varied number.
Serving Suggestions: Fill crépes with cottage cheese – or favourite apricot preserves and sprinkle with 1 tsp
sugar and ground walnuts.
Beat egg yolks, sugar and salt until thick and lemon coloured. Add cottage cheese to egg mixture. Add vanilla
extract and lemon peel. Set aside. After crépes are prepared, dollop cheese in along 1 edge of crépe. Roll up
and place in baking dish. Put in 350° oven for 15 minutes just to reheat filing. Sprinkle with granulated sugar
– serve hot!
Cube meat. Sauté onion and garlic in fat and add pork or lamb. Sauté for a few more minutes, then add paprika.
Cover with water and simmer until meat is nearly tender. Add carrots and parsley and simmer for 20 minutes. Add
potatoes, tomatoes (optional) and celery and simmer until vegetables and meat is fork tender. Add salt and
pepper to taste. Add Hot Hungarian Pepper to taste. (Be careful – your guests may need to be introduced to the
hot flavour gradually.)
Cooking Hint: For this recipe, you can use pork or lamb as the cooking times are the same. For beef - more water
and more simmering time is required - also depends on the cut of meat. Serving Suggestion: Serve with Fresh
Hungarian Crusty Bread. Nokedli can be omitted if using potatoes.
