Mushroom pancakes

Mushroom pancakes are a fragrant and delicate dish of European cuisine that combines the earthy flavor of mushrooms with the spiciness of spices and the freshness of greens. The history of this recipe traces back to traditional village kitchens in Europe, where mushrooms were an accessible and beloved ingredient. In this version, the mushrooms are first sautéed until a rich aroma develops, then mixed with egg, flour, and spices to form a thick batter. The pancakes are baked in the oven until golden brown while retaining their juiciness inside. They pair perfectly with a yogurt sauce with spinach or sour cream, highlighting their soft flavor. Mushroom pancakes are an excellent choice for those who appreciate simplicity and sophistication in one dish.
1
Heat olive oil in a pan and sauté finely chopped onion in it. Without turning off the heat, add minced garlic and herbs. Fry until a light aroma appears. Then add chopped mushrooms, reduce the heat to minimum, and cover the pan with a lid. The mushrooms should release their juice.
- Onion: 1 piece
- Garlic: 1 head
- Olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- Button mushrooms: 250 g
- Fresh herbs: to taste

Open the lid and fry everything over medium heat until the juice is absorbed back. Remove from heat and let it cool well. Add a well-beaten egg, salt, spices, and sprinkle in flour. I made it half with rye flour, it turned out a bit unusual, but I liked the taste.
- Chicken egg: 1 piece
- Salt: to taste
- Spices: to taste
- Wheat flour: 50 g

'The dough,' as this mass can be called, should be very thick and easily scooped with a spoon. Place it in small patties on a greased baking sheet and send the pancakes to the oven. Bake at 180-200 degrees for about 10 minutes on each side.
- Olive oil: 2 tablespoons

The dish is ready. It is better to serve it immediately, as the pancakes will lose their aroma and taste later. It will be good to dress it with yogurt with spinach or sour cream. I got 6 pieces with this amount of ingredients.
- Salt: to taste
- Spices: to taste
