Savory Pancakes with Turkey and Melted Cheese
A tantalizing embrace of meat, these golden savory pancakes blend the smoky tenderness of turkey with the gooey allure of melted cheese—creating a warm, nostalgic bite that feels like a cherished brunch memory.
Ingredients
- 15 zucchini flowers
- 5 slices of turkey
- 5 slices of melting cheese (like cheese for toast)
- 200 g flour
- 50-100 g water
- 1 egg
- Salt
- Pepper
- Sweet paprika
- Olive oil for frying
Instructions Carefully clean the zucchini flowers, removing the stems, the outer green parts, and the yellow pistil inside, making sure not to tear them. Rinse the flowers gently and set them aside to drain.
In a bowl, cut the cheese and turkey into small pieces, then use this mixture to stuff each flower. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, salt, pepper, and paprika. Lightly beat the egg and add it to the flour mixture. Gradually add water until you reach a thick batter consistency. If needed, add more water to achieve the right thickness.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Dip each stuffed flower in the batter, making sure it’s fully coated, then place it in the hot oil. Fry the flowers on both sides until they’re golden and crispy.
Why It’s Irresistible
Each fluffy pancake carries a savory burst of finely chopped turkey and creamy, melting cheese—simple ingredients orchestrated into a harmonious melody of texture and flavor.
