Cooking method
-
Step 1:
Gather your ingredients. To make cabbage pancakes you'll need: 500 g green cabbage; 500 ml water; 200 g flour; 50 ml vegetable oil; 3 large eggs; 1 tablespoon salt; and a pinch of ground black pepper.
-
Step 2:
Wash and dry the cabbage. Peel off the outer dry or dirty leaves and cut off a chunk of the size you need. If you hit the core, cut that out too. You should end up with 500 g of trimmed cabbage. Chop it coarsely.
-
Step 3:
Put the cabbage in a blender.
-
Step 4:
Blend the cabbage as finely as possible.
-
Step 5:
Add the eggs, salt, and pepper to the blended cabbage.
-
Step 6:
Blend everything again. You want a smooth mixture flecked with tiny bits of cabbage.
-
Step 7:
Pour the mixture into a deep bowl.
-
Step 8:
Sift the flour into the cabbage mixture and whisk it in thoroughly. Let the batter rest for 10–15 minutes.
-
Step 9:
Heat a skillet and grease it with vegetable oil. Ladle the cabbage batter into the pan.
-
Step 10:
Cook the pancake on one side, covered, for about 2 minutes over low heat until browned. Then flip it and cook, covered, for about 1 minute more.
-
Step 11:
Transfer the pancake to a platter. Cook the rest the same way, greasing the pan with oil each time.
-
Step 12:
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with sour cream. Enjoy!
- About a year ago I made small cabbage fritters, and everyone who tried them loved them. This year I decided to size them up into full pancakes. Cabbage pancakes are one of the most original dishes in Eastern European cooking, with great flavor and a wonderful aroma. You can use all sorts of cabbage, but green cabbage makes the tastiest pancakes. Serve them with sour cream, yogurt, or a topping of chopped herbs and garlic. They work as a side for meat, a light standalone snack, or a great breakfast. They're a light, veggie-forward dish—perfect for adding variety to a child's meals, for meatless days, or for lighter eating.
