Pancakes Stuffed with Baked Beans and Vegetables recipe - How to make Pancakes Stuffed with Baked Beans and Vegetables

For The Pancakes
1/4 cup plain flour (maida)
1/4 cup cornflour
1/3 cup milk
1 tsp melted butter
a pinch of salt
melted butter for cooking

For The Stuffing
1 tbsp butter
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
1/2 cup finely chopped french beans
1/4 cup finely chopped carrot
1/2 cup baked beans
1/2 tsp chilli powder
1 tbsp tomato ketchup
salt to taste

Other Ingredients
1 cup white sauce
4 tbsp grated processed cheese

Method
For the pancakes

Combine all the ingredients along with approx. ¼ cup of water in a deep bowl and mix well till no lumps remain to make a batter of pouring consistency.
Pour a spoonful of the batter on a greased non-stick tava (griddle) and rotate in a circular motion to get a 100 mm. (4”) diameter thin circle.
When the pancake begins to peel off, turn the pancake around and cook on the other side till light golden brown spots appear.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 to make 3 more pancakes. Keep aside.

For the stuffing

Heat the butter in a broad non-stick pan, add the onions and sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute.
Add the vegetables and sauté on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the baked beans, chilli powder, tomato ketchup and salt, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 1 minute, while stirring occasionally.
Divide the stuffing into 4 equal portions. Keep aside.

How to proceed

Place a pancake on a clean, dry surface, place a portion of the stuffing on one end of the pancake, sprinkle ½ tbsp of cheese evenly over it.
Fold over it to make a semi-circle.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 to stuff 3 more pancakes. Keep aside.
Take a flat baking dish, place 4 stuffed pancakes on it, pour the white sauce evenly over it. Finally sprinkle the remaining 2 tbsp of cheese over it.
Bake in a pre-heated oven at 200ºc (400ºf) for 15 minutes.
Serve immediately.
