Racuszki with Rhubarb

  • This is the first of several new recipes with rhubarb.
  • Racuszki are a cross between a fritter and an American style pancake.
  • Rbubarb is starting to grow in the garden.
  • I decided to try a recipe based on racuszki made with apples which I had posted several years ago.
  • INGREDIENTS
  • 4 -5 stalks of rhubarb (depends on size)
  • 130g plain flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 125ml of yoghurt
  • 2 eggs
  • Water (up to 60ml)
  • *
  • Sunflower oil for frying
  • METHOD
  • Chop the rhubarb into thin slices around 1 to 5cm (no more).
  • Mix the flour, salt and yoghurt in a large bowl.
  • Beat in the eggs.
  • Add enough water to make a very thick batter.
  • Stir in the rhubarb to coat the pieces.
  • Using 1-2 tablespoons, drop these on a hot griddle or frying pan – you may need a little sunflower oil.
  • Have the heat on low to medium so you do not burn them.
  • Flatten the rhubarb so you only have 1 layer in each pancake.
  • Turn over and bake on both sides.
  • *
  • Best eaten hot – but you can keep them in a warm oven if you want to serve them all together.
  • *
  • Dust with icing sugar to serve or sugar mixed with cinnamon.

I love cooking and baking. I love trying out new recipes and currently am trying out many old favourites from my Polish cookbooks and family recipes. I am trying out many variations, often to make them easier but still delicious. I collect glass cake stands and china tableware, mainly tea plates, jugs and serving dishes, many of which I use on a daily basis. They are an eclectic mixture from the 20th & 21st century.
