Ingredients
Product | amount |
Water | 260 ml |
Flour | 160 g |
Salt | 1 pinch |
Semolina | 2 tbsp. l |
Step cooking
- Pour 160 g of flour and 2 tbsp into a deep container. l semolina, add 1 pinch of salt and mix with a tablespoon all the dry ingredients.
- Pour 260 ml of water into a 0.5 liter saucepan and heat over high heat until warm. Pour warm water in portions into a mixture of dry ingredients, constantly stirring with a fork until a smooth, liquid mass without lumps is obtained.
- We put the pan on a small fire, heat it slightly and use a brush to apply a thin layer of batter onto the dry bottom of the pan in circular motions. We put the pan back on a small fire and let the dough dry a little, making sure that it does not fry.
- When the dough dries a little, remove the pan from the heat and in a circular motion apply a second layer of dough with a brush to the dried layer. We return the pan to the fire and wait for the pancake to move away along the edges, this will mean that it is ready.
- We don’t turn the pancake on the second side, but simply remove it from the pan with a spatula and put it on the dish. In a similar way, we bake thin pancakes-briquettes until our dough is over and we get a stack of 12 pancakes.
Such Brik cakes are very widespread in the countries of the East. They wrap any filling, starting from minced meat and ending with eggs and herbs. Also, these delicate and thin pancakes are used to make sweets. After the filling is wrapped inside, they are fried in vegetable oil. You can also use them as baskets with filling, then the dish will not require frying, and will be a dietary option.
Video recipe
Due to the fact that this method of baking dough in the form of pancakes is unusual, and its process may not be fully understood, it’s worth watching a video recipe to fully understand the application of layers on a pan, as well as in the process of drying bricks.
