Total time: 50 minutes Preparation time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes Number of servings: 4 Ingredients for pancakes: - 1 cup of flour - 2 eggs - 1 cup of milk - 1/4 cup of water - 1/4 teaspoon of salt - 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil Ingredients for filling: - 300 g ground turkey - 1 large onion (finely chopped) - 1 chili pepper (or more, to taste) - 1 teaspoon sweet paprika - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano - 1/2 cup of tomatoes in sauce (or chopped fresh tomatoes) - Salt and pepper to taste - Oil for frying For serving: - Sour cream - Salsa (optional) - Fresh cilantro for garnish Preparing the pancakes: 1. In a large bowl, mix the flour with the salt, then add the eggs, milk, and water. Whisk well until you have a smooth, fluid batter. Add the oil and mix again. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes. 2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil. Pour a ladle of batter into the skillet and swirl it to evenly cover the surface. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the pancake is golden, then flip it to the other side and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat until you finish all the batter. Preparing the filling: 1. In a deep skillet, heat a few tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. 2. Add the finely chopped chili pepper, paprika, and oregano, stirring well to release the flavors. Cook for 2 minutes. 3. Add the ground turkey and cook, stirring frequently, until it is evenly browned. In the last minutes, add the tomatoes in sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 5-10 minutes. Assembling the pancakes: 1. Take a pancake and fill it with a generous portion of the turkey filling. Fold the pancake in half or roll it, depending on your preference, and continue with the other pancakes. 2. Serve them hot, garnished with sour cream, salsa, and fresh cilantro for an extra touch of freshness. Helpful tips: - You can substitute turkey with chicken or even vegetables for a vegetarian option. - Add grated cheese to the filling for a richer taste and texture. - These pancakes can also be prepared in advance; you can freeze them and reheat in the oven before serving. - For a spicier version, experiment with different types of chili peppers or spicy sauces. Enjoy these Mexican pancakes with turkey filling, a quick and delicious recipe that will bring a touch of sunshine to every day!
