Name: Semolina pancakes with a curd-and-lemon filling – delicate, fragrant and ready in no time
Prep time: 45 min
Cook time: 45 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 6
Ingredients: 3 eggs; a pinch of salt; 2 tablespoons granulated sugar; 1 and 2/3 cups semolina (approx. 250 g); 2 and 1/2 cups milk (approx. 600 ml); 50 g melted butter (cooled); 250 g curd (soft); juice and finely grated zest of 1/2 lemon; 2 tablespoons sour cream; 1 packet vanilla sugar (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract); 1/4 cup granulated sugar (approx. 40 g)

Preparation procedure

Base of the batter – whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and the sugar. Stir in the semolina and let stand for 15 minutes so it can swell.
Filling – mix the curd with the lemon juice and zest, sour cream, vanilla and sugar until smooth. Keep chilled.
Completing the batter – gradually whisk the milk into the swollen mixture and finally the melted cooled butter. The consistency should be liquid but slightly creamy.
Frying – heat the pan well. Before the first pancake add a drop of oil, pour a thin layer of batter and spread it with a circular motion. Fry on both sides until golden. If needed, add a little oil to the pan.
Filling and serving – fill the still-warm pancakes with the curd-and-lemon cream, roll them up or fold into a parcel. Serve on their own, with fresh fruit or dusted with powdered sugar.

Number of servings: 12–14 pancakes

Total preparation time: 45–55 minutes (15 min prep • 15 min resting • 15–25 min frying)

Note: cup volume used: 250 ml

Tips

Adjust the batter thickness with a tablespoon of milk (thinner) or a teaspoon of semolina (thicker).
For an extra delicate flavor, replace part of the milk with whipping cream.
A handful of raisins soaked in rum or lemon juice also work great in the filling.

Conclusion

Semolina pancakes are a safe bet – quick, simple and yet perfectly fluffy. The lemony curd gives them freshness, so you won’t stop at just one. Make them for the kids’ dinner, for guests at afternoon coffee or treat yourself just for fun.
