A Cozy Country Breakfast to Start the Day
Hello dear friends! 👋 Today, we’re venturing into the heart of country cooking, where rustic flavors and village charm come together to create a breakfast that warms both heart and home. 🌿🍳🥞 This isn’t just any meal; it’s an experience that brings us back to our roots, filled with love and the comforting aromas of a well-loved kitchen.
Let’s dive into the delightful dishes we’re preparing: freshly made tortillas and scrumptious stuffed pancakes. Each bite is a little piece of tradition, lovingly crafted from simple ingredients that reflect the beauty of village life.
The Magic of Homemade Tortillas
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (optional)
Instructions
- Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Gradually add warm water while mixing with your hands. If you desire a richer taste, incorporate the oil.
- Knead: Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it’s soft and pliable.
- Rest: Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax and makes rolling easier.
- Roll: Divide the dough into small balls and roll each one into a thin circle, about 6 inches in diameter.
- Cook: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side, or until it develops golden brown spots and puffs slightly.
The Heartiness of Stuffed Pancakes
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- Filling of your choice (cheese, herbs, minced meat, or sweet options like fruit and jam)
- Butter or oil for frying
Instructions
- Make the Batter: In a bowl, whisk together flour, milk, eggs, and sugar until smooth.
- Prepare the Filling: While the batter rests, prepare your desired filling. Whether savory or sweet, ensure it’s ready to be enveloped in the pancake.
- Cook the Pancakes: Heat a little butter or oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan, spreading it to form a circle.
- Add the Filling: Once the pancake starts to bubble, add your filling to one half and fold the pancake over to cover it.
- Finish Cooking: Cook for another minute or so until golden brown on both sides.
