Ingredients

Product amount
Water 260 ml
Flour 160 g
Salt 1 pinch
Semolina 2 tbsp. l

Step cooking

  1. Pour 160 g of flour and 2 tbsp into a deep container. l semolina, add 1 pinch of salt and mix with a tablespoon all the dry ingredients.
    In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients.
  2. Pour 260 ml of water into a 0.5 liter saucepan and heat over high heat until warm. Pour warm water in portions into a mixture of dry ingredients, constantly stirring with a fork until a smooth, liquid mass without lumps is obtained.
    We add warm water to the dry components a little.
  3. We put the pan on a small fire, heat it slightly and use a brush to apply a thin layer of batter onto the dry bottom of the pan in circular motions. We put the pan back on a small fire and let the dough dry a little, making sure that it does not fry.
    Apply the briquette dough to a dry pan with a brush.
  4. When the dough dries a little, remove the pan from the heat and in a circular motion apply a second layer of dough with a brush to the dried layer. We return the pan to the fire and wait for the pancake to move away along the edges, this will mean that it is ready.
    Now gently apply the second layer of dough in the same way.
  5. We don’t turn the pancake on the second side, but simply remove it from the pan with a spatula and put it on the dish. In a similar way, we bake thin pancakes-briquettes until our dough is over and we get a stack of 12 pancakes.
    such pancakes can serve as the basis for a variety of snacks.
Important! So that the edges of the dough do not dry out, do not crumble, and it was possible to work with it further without problems, it is better to lay the finished briquettes on a slightly damp cloth towel. They need to be folded in a pile, and while baking other pancakes, breeches cover the finished product with the second half of a wet towel.

Such Brik cakes are very widespread in the countries of the East. They wrap any filling, starting from minced meat and ending with eggs and herbs. Also, these delicate and thin pancakes are used to make sweets. After the filling is wrapped inside, they are fried in vegetable oil. You can also use them as baskets with filling, then the dish will not require frying, and will be a dietary option.
