This stuffed pancake dish can be a very interesting combination of chilli, salty and slightly sweet. Whats more the pancakes have a vegan version (see at the end) which I have been promised turn out great! I’m going to try that today.

Oil as required

For the filling

PREPARATION
Beat up the eggs.

Lightly in mix all ingredients for the batter, in a fairly large bowl; leave 5-10 minutes to rise.
Gently fold down; leave again for 5-10 minutes if you have the time, and gently fold down again.

Meanwhile chop the chilli and onion up fine. Saute the onions in a little oil till golden brown.

Add the cottage cheese and chilly and saute for just 5 minutes. Add a little salt if it’s unsalted, add a little pepper and saute a couple of minutes more. Add the cheddar, stir and set aside the mixture.

In a small skillet, heat a teaspoon of oil and swirl around.
Drop in 2 tablespoons of batter, swirl to spread and cook on medium heat to light golden.

Put in a couple of teaspoons of cottage cheese mixture. Fold over in half and cook for a couple of minutes more.

Serve hot.
