breakfast

Monday, February 15th, 2010

Even though it’s quite a few years that separate me and the real Shrove Tuesday celebration, in  my memory the festivity is still alive with people in great costumes, burning More, dances around the fires and generous amounts of pancakes consumed throughout the day. The latter is not missed here, and as nobody invites us to kick the winter out of the yard, at least we make it a feast for the frying pan and our tummies :)

Sweet breakfast.

Nors jau daug metu skiria mane ir tikra uzgavieniu sventima, bet prisiminimuose svente vistik vis dar tebegyva persirengeliais, deganciom Morem, sokiais aplink lauzus ir blynu persivalgymu. Va pastarojo dalyko cia netruksta, o kadangi niekas nekviecia spirti ziemos is kiemo, tai bent jau pasidarom svente sau ir keptuvei :)

Saldus pusryciai.

Ingredients:

120g plain flour

2 eggs

350ml rice milk (or any other milk)

pinch of salt

2 tablespoons agave syrup

For the filling:

sliced bananas

desiccated coconut

ground cinammon

lemon juice

To make this simple pancake batter, sift the flour and salt into a bowl. Add the egg and beat well. Then add the milk gradually, syrup and beat to make a smooth runny batter.

Heat a little oil in a large frying pan until hot and then pour enough batter to thinly coat the base of the pan. Cook for a couple of minutes each side.

Serve filled with sliced banana, desiccated coconut, cinnamon and a splash of lemon juice.

Simple recipe, yet delicious result. Indeed.

Teslai:

120g kvietiniu miltu

2 kiausiniai

350ml pieno (mes sekmingai naudojam ryziu)

ziupsnelis druskos

2 saukstai syrupo ar cukraus (tinka kas patinka, mes mylim datuliu, klevo, agavo syrupus)

Idarui

griezineliais pjaustyti bananai

kokoso drozles

cinamonas

cirtinos sultys

Paprastai blynu teslai pasigaminti, susiberiame miltus ir druska i dubeni. Pridedame kiausinius, gerai iplakame. Palaipsniui pilame piena, syrupa ir maisom iki vientisos skystos teslos.

Ikaitinam truputeli aliejaus keptuveje, pilam samti teslos, paskirstom tolygiai kad pasidengtu visas keptuves pavirsius.  Kepam kiekviena puse po pora minuciu.

Patiekiam pripildytus pjaustytu bananu, kokoso drozlem, cinamonu ir slaku cirtinos sulciu.

Paprastas receptas, bet resultatas l. skanus. Net labai.

Is it the blue patches in the sky and the warmth outside, is it Friday, or is it the happy feeling – I love what I do, I love what and who I have, that tickle my soul… regardless the reasons – the spring has visited me!

Mandy (sold!) wanted to be like Mai. Special. But don’t we all are? :)
