Do you like savoury pancakes, day with ham and cheese ?

[LardLizard]

Thought about trying for lunch but then though oh are they a bit gross !! 😂

Used to have the when we were kids. Mum made a cheese sauce and put ham chopped up in and then rolled it up in a pancake. Top with grated cheese and grill.

Totally stodgetastic but yummy. Would go nice with a green salad.

I've also used pancakes to do like enchiladas with chicken and beans in.

Yes. Yum! Ham, mushroom, onion and Philadelphia cheese with chives melted in as a sauce.

Yeh! Bacon or ham with cheese is lush! I had this for breakfast most days when I went to Amsterdam. Didn’t cross my mind to do savoury before because I don’t like them sweet.

Isn’t that just crêpes? Savoury crêpes are a known food in French and other cultures.

Yes! The Dutch love savory pancakes!
Fry up onions, mushrooms, bacon, ham, whatever. Add the batter to the pan (it will be a bit thicker than a crepe). Once cooked, top with cheese and pop under the grill.

Yes - I prefer them to the sweet versions!

Your favourite pancake batter recipes?

Mine: one cup plain flour, one cup double cream with the juice of half a lemon squeezed into it (to resemble buttermilk, which makes it lighter), one cup sparkling water, two eggs, pinch of salt.
Whisk eggs and flour, gradually add cream and sparkly water. Tastes even better after a night in the fridge.

Yes yes yes

Yes definitely.

They're was a place near here that used to do one with smoked haddock in cheese sauce, it was awesome.

I think putting anything savoury in a pancake is abomination.
We have a national dish of some sort of mince in pancakes. I still remember the anger I felt as a kid about the ruined pancakes. 😀

I could eat them if I had to but I’d rather not!

My pancakes have a dash of sugar in them and are served with a heap of blueberries, banana, other fruit (and maple syrup).

We had some delicious croquettes last night which were pancakes stuffed with Gouda, mushrooms and then breadcrumbed. I'm definitely buying them again!

There is a restaurant called My old Dutch which does good savory pancakes. We now make them at home a lot. Bacon, mushroom, veg and often a double of maple syrup

I love savoury pancakes, much more than sweet ones.

They need something fresh in them, otherwise I find them a bit stodgy, though. So yes to cheese and ham but then add spinach, or fresh tomato, or a dollop of ratatouille, something like that. Perfect breakfast!

Yes, they are a cheap and filling meal, and great for using leftovers such as chicken and mushroom.
As mentioned, smoked haddock in a creamy sauce, or asparagus in a creamy sauce are good too.

Oh god I would love one right now

I think pancakes need wet ingredient to soak in to be at their best.
Ham cheese and loads of juicy pineapple works a treat.
