Tag: Ruloniki

• I have been thinking about making savoury pancakes for a while.
• I came across a new word (to me) – ruloniki. 
• Sweet pancakes are served – fan folded whereas savoury ones are rolled up.
• Either the pancake is just rolled up or – 
• Two sides are first folded in slightly and then the pancake is rolled up.
• I made these with a mushroom filling – based on my mushroom sauce – adding more potato flour to make the sauce thicker.
• First make a batch of pancakes and keep them warm or heat them up later when needed.
