Scrambled Pancakes
In Germany, this dish is called "Schmarrn", which roughly translates to "mess". Austria is famous for the fancy version "Kaiserschmarrn". This is not the fancy version. This is the rustic version.
For 2 people:
- 10 tablespoons flour (250g)
- 3 tablespoons semolina
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 eggs
- ~1.5 cups milk (300ml)
- pinch salt
- shot oil
1. Mix in a bowl, whisk until combined, let rest for 15-30 minutes, then whisk again. The consistency should be thick pancake-batter.
2. On medium heat, melt a knob of butter in a large pan that can hold all the dough. When the butter is sizzling, pour in the dough. In the beginning, stir occasionally with a wooden spatula on medium heat. Then increase the heat and stir regularly. Use the spatula to chop the dough into bits smaller than an inch, so they cook faster.
- If the bits start looking dry, add a little bit of butter to the pan.
- If the bits get dark and crunchy, reduce heat to medium again.
- Fry until the bits are no longer rubber-like in consistency and fried through and through.
3. Serve in a bowl topped with anything sweet.
