Semolina pancakes with rhubarb from Spoonsparrow: Very simple and just right for those who also enjoy a sweet main course.

Ingredients

  • 65 g whole wheat semolina
  • 250 ml milk (1.5% fat)
  • 150 g red-fleshed rhubarb (2 stalks)
  • 200 g strawberries
  • 2 Eggs
  • Salt
  • 1 tbsp Rapeseed Oil
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar (from raw cane sugar)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Bring the semolina and milk to a boil in a pot. Remove from heat, cover, and let it swell for 10 minutes before allowing it to cool slightly.

  2. 2.

    Wash, trim, and cut the rhubarb into about 2 cm pieces. Wash and trim the strawberries; depending on size, halve or quarter them.

  3. 3.

    Separate the eggs. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt in a tall bowl until very stiff using a hand mixer.

  4. 4.

    Whisk the yolks in a separate bowl until creamy, then fold them into the cooled semolina batter.

  5. 5.

    Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter using a spatula to keep the mixture light.

  6. 6.

    Heat oil in a large non‑stick pan. Add the rhubarb and sauté over medium heat for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently so it stays firm.

  7. 7.

    Spread the batter evenly over the rhubarb and cook covered on low heat for about 6 minutes until set.

  8. 8.

    Transfer the pancake to a plate, sift powdered sugar over it, garnish with strawberries, and serve.
