Guest Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 did anyone watch ricver cottage winter yesterday? They showed Hugh making crispy pancakes (like the findus ones but more tasty looking!). I think the recipe is in the next programme but i want to make them now! I've got some savoury mince in the freezer and I've just been given some day old bread by next-door-but-one who gets it off the baker for his horses. He's given some to us for the chickens but I'm going to use it for breadcrumbs instead so all i need to do is make some pancakes but i don't know how he puts it all together. help!

craftyhunnypie Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Hi - I wonder if he makes sort of mince patties? Then coats then in flour, then beaten egg, then breadcrumbs & fries them. Mmmmm Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen & co. Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 The children thought they looked really tasty too I guess we have to wait until next week before he lets us have the recipe I was thinking about making them but wondered how you stop the filling from spilling out Unless you staple the edges together Karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I can't wait for the recipe either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I was going to make some pancakes then brush one side with beaten egg, cover it in breadcrumbs then put some filling in and fold it over and seal with more beaten egg and do them in the oven, but my kitchen scales have gone caput. I tried to make pancakes by guessing but they turned out rubbish, too heavy and broke apart so i just ate them with lemon and sugar instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Will give the link to dad It annoys me that they always put bacon with chicken but I'm sure we can take it out or use veggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I'm currently cooking the chilli beef he did in last weeks programme for dinner tonight. We are having the pancakes tomorrow for dinner and I can't wait. I used to love them when I was little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 i'm making a batch of savoury mince tonight so will set some aside for pancakes later in the week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Well I made them tonight filled with a savoury mince, and they were scrummy I served them with some roasted peppers, mushrooms and onion. Here is a photo 1 pancake was enough each, so the rest have gone in the freezer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Jealous much? We didn't have them tonight but dad said he'd do them one day this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 We had these on Monday for dinner. DS had a friend over so I thought why not. It was a real retro looking plate what with (non)Findus crispy pancakes, baked beans and mash. I didn't have any smoked fish, so made up a batch of the cheese sauce with some sweetcorn, divided into two bowls, mixed chopped ham in one and tuna in the other. Was very, very nice. Everyone prefered the tuna one. I shall be doing these again. Maybe do a double batch and freeze half as it did take me a while to make (pancakes always seem to take forever).

Karen & co. Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 We had these this week too or that should really be everyone but me and a few friends of the children had them! I doubled the quantities and did the chicken one, the first 2 were huge as my pancake pan bought from Aldi for the occasion is too big but I still used it, cut the pancakes in half and made them in a quarter segment shape which went down really well A few oven chips and baked beans and lots of clean plates The only down side was the big faff factor though making enough for 7 Karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Quorn and sweetcorn crispy pancakes are currently being made downstairs Father took the hint when I measured out all the ingredients ready to make them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 The first one was a bit dodgy, I think too greasy but I had to try another one Seconds was better for some reason, probably because it had drained a bit better or something.

craftyhunnypie Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Oh I used to love Findus ones..I must try these homemade versions. Mmmm cheese, potato & spring onion I think I'd put in mine. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
