Know your Kolkata Food Blogger - Meet Jayati of Jayati's Food Journey and create one of her recipes!

And here I am..back again with a new post. This week it's Jayati who is getting featured in the Know your Kolkata Food Blogger Event. Jayati is one of the new members of KFB but she is a veteran in the food blogosphere. Her blog Jayati's Food Journey is a treasure trove of recipes. What i liked most about her blog is her focus on traditional bengali recipes. Recipes that are not regularly created in Bengali kitchens anymore -Kumro Fuler Bora(Pumpkin Blossom fritters) or Laupatay Puti Maach(Small fish wrap) are all heritage dishes.
I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting her personally but hope to do so in the near future. I had initially thought of trying out one of her traditional recipes but because of time crunch - am having to pick up one easy recipe from her blog. Now egg is an all time favourite with the family and she had blogged about the Spanish Omlette sometime back.
I almost instantly picked it up and recreated that into a Spanish Pancake . The spanish pancake originally is mostly sweet, but i thought that a savoury version would turn out just as good. It is loaded with the goodness of veggies - you can add just about anything you want and is very very tasty. 

Ingredients:

Egg - 3 nos

Flour - 3 tbsp

Milk - half a cup

Baking powder - 1 tsp

Potatoes - 1 small - thinly sliced

Onion - half an onion - thinly sliced

Green peas - a handful

Chicken sausages - 2 - roughly chopped

Coriander leaves/cilantro - a handful - finely chopped

Chilli flakes - 1 tsp

Salt - to taste

Crushed pepper - 1 tsp

Butter - 1 tsp

Olive oil - 1 tsp

Method:

In a bowl , whisk the egg with salt and pepper. Add the flour and the milk and mix well into the egg mixture. Keep this aside.

In a small non stick pan , heat the butter and the olive oil.
Tip in the onion ,potatoes , sausages and the peas.
Saute till it turns light brown in colour.

Add the chilli flakes and the salt to taste. Keep a check on salt as sausages can get too salty.

Next add the egg-flour mixture into the pan, sprinkle the chopped coriander on top and cover with a lid. Keep on low heat.

After 5-7 mins - turn it around with a flat spoon/spatula.

Cook for another 2-3 mins. 
Cut into wedges and serve hot.
