Step 1:
How to make cheese pancakes with greens? Prepare the products. Take milk of any fat content, it does not matter. Cheese for this dish is suitable solid or semi-solid. The main thing is that it is delicious, high-quality, without milk fat substitutes and melts well. You can take any greens that you like or that are available.
Step 2:
Beat the eggs into a bowl. Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush. Add sugar, salt and whisk everything together with a whisk until smooth.
Step 3:
Heat the milk slightly and pour it into the beaten eggs. Mix everything with a whisk. On warm milk, the dough turns out to be more homogeneous — flour will be better diluted in it.
Step 4:
Sift flour with baking powder. It is important to sift the flour to saturate it with oxygen. Then the baking will turn out to be airy and will rise well when baking.
Step 5:
Gradually, in several steps, add the sifted flour to the dough. After each addition, mix the dough well with a whisk or mixer.
Step 6:
The dough should be homogeneous, without lumps and quite liquid, like on ordinary thin pancakes.
Step 7:
Grate the cheese on a fine grater.
Step 8:
Wash the dill and parsley (or other herbs), dry and finely chop.
Step 9:
Add grated cheese, chopped herbs and vegetable oil to the pancake batter.
Step 10:
Stir. If the dough is too thick as a result, you can dilute it with warm milk or water.
Step 11:
Fry the cheese pancakes in a hot frying pan until golden brown on both sides. There is no need to lubricate the pan, since the dough already contains vegetable oil. But before the first pancake, still smear it with a small amount so that it does not come out lumpy.
Step 12:
Stack the finished pancakes on top of each other, liberally smearing them with butter.
Step 13:
Serve these pancakes with sour cream. Delicious with warm milk. Bon appetit!

Tender and fragrant pancakes with cheese and herbs can be served with sour cream or made the basis of a snack pancake cake, for example, from boiled chicken or fried mushrooms.

Researching Russian life and traditions, historian V. Pohlebkin came to the conclusion that the name of the dish comes from the form of the word grind, "mlin". Literally, "pancake" can mean a product made of flour, which is completely true. Historically, the highest quality products were used to prepare the dish.
The thing is that pancakes, as well as kutya, were intended for commemoration of the deceased. They were baked in large quantities and distributed to people with a small income, so that they, in turn, tasted the delicacy and remembered the deceased. Later, closer to the IX century, pancakes became the main dish of the Maslenitsa holiday, which is also a kind of wake or send-off of winter. Although, there is another version that they resemble the spring sun in color and shape and are a symbol of the main Slavic deity, Yarilo.

Be prepared for the fact that flour may need more or less than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. To avoid mistakes, read about flour and its properties!
