Savory Pancakes with Turkey Breast

Savory pancakes cooked with crisp-fried strips of turkey breast baked in, sprinkled with chives.

Ingredients · for 4 servings

• 250 g flour
• 4 eggs
• 450 ml milk
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 300 g turkey breast
• 1 bunch chives
• 3 tbsp clarified butter
• 1 tsp sweet paprika powder
• Salt, pepper

Instructions

1. Mix the flour and 1/2 tsp salt, add the eggs and gradually stir in the milk until a smooth, thin batter forms; let it rest for 15 min.
2. Cut the turkey breast into strips about 5 mm thick and season with paprika, salt and pepper; cut the chives into fine rings.
3. Heat 1 tbsp clarified butter hard in a 24 cm nonstick pan and fry the turkey strips for 4–5 min., until crisply browned all over; remove.
4. Add a little clarified butter to the pan, spread a quarter of the turkey strips in it and pour a ladle of batter over them so it thinly covers the bottom.
5. Cook the pancake over medium heat for 3 min., until the underside is golden brown and the surface has set, flip and finish cooking for another 2 min.; prepare all four pancakes this way.
6. Sprinkle the pancakes generously with chives and serve hot immediately on warmed plates.
