My favorite meal was Palancinka (palacinky) – A Slovak crepe. I have this recipe in my book: Baba’s Kitchen: Slovak & Rusyn Family Recipes & Traditions, 2nd Ed. My grandmother used to make them for me for lunch – they were and remain one of my favorites!
Palacinky
1 c. flour
1-½ c. milk
2 eggs
2 tbsp. sugar
1 tbsp. oil
⅛ tsp. salt
Combine all ingredients beat until smooth.
Heat a small amount of Crisco in a skillet (an omelet pan works nicely). Pour a small amount of batter into skillet and spread around in the skillet (like making a crepe). Cook until brown, then flip over and brown other side. Turn onto a plate. Repeat until all batter is used.
Fill with cottage cheese and jelly (any flavor)*. Roll. Then drizzle some melted browned butter on top.
