Kaygana is a traditional thin pancake made by mixing eggs, flour, and plenty of greens and cooking the batter in a skillet. This egg pancake from Black Sea cuisine is a popular, easy option for breakfast or a snack.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the batter

5 min

Beat the eggs in a bowl. Add the flour and milk and mix until smooth and lump-free. The batter should be pourable.

2

Add the herbs and scallions

3 min

Stir the chopped parsley, sliced green onions, salt, and black pepper into the batter.

3

Cook in a skillet

7 min

Heat a little cooking oil in a skillet. Pour in a ladleful of batter and spread it into a thin layer. Cook over low heat until the underside is browned, then flip and cook the other side. Repeat with the remaining batter and serve hot.

Reminder

Important: Keep the batter thin and pourable for a delicate, tender kaygana; thick batter makes it thick and rubbery. Heat the skillet well, then cook over low heat; high heat can burn the outside while leaving the inside raw. Contains eggs and gluten (wheat flour).
