Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 2 eggs
  • ⅛ cup chopped fresh dill
  • ⅓ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon oil (for cooking)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cabbage: Thinly slice the cabbage and place it into a mixing bowl, ensuring the pieces are evenly sized for consistent cooking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: Add the eggs, salt, and chopped dill to the bowl with the cabbage. Stir well to thoroughly combine these ingredients and evenly distribute the seasoning and herbs.
  3. Add the Flour: Sprinkle the all-purpose flour into the cabbage mixture and mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated to create a batter that holds together.
  4. Heat the Skillet: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the tablespoon of oil. Allow the oil to heat until shimmering but not smoking, ready for frying the pancake.
  5. Form the Pancake: Pour the cabbage mixture into the hot skillet and use a spoon to flatten it, forming a pancake that is about ¾ to 1 inch thick to ensure even cooking through the center.
  6. Cook Covered: Cover the skillet with a lid and cook the pancake for 5 to 7 minutes. This helps steam and cook the cabbage and eggs inside while the bottom becomes crispy and golden.
  7. Flip and Cook Other Side: Carefully flip the pancake using a plate or spatula, and cook the other side for another 5 to 7 minutes until it is also golden brown and crispy.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding finely chopped onions or garlic to the batter.
  • You can substitute all-purpose flour with gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version.
  • The pancake is best served immediately while hot and crispy, either on its own or with a dipping sauce like sour cream or a soy-based sauce.
  • Make sure the oil is hot before adding the batter to get a nice crispy crust.
