(recipe 👇) you’ve seen dob’s childhood breakfasts, and now it’s emy’s turn.

first yufka, then popara in our other videos. this morning, emy brought her eastern roots to the table with syrniki. little cheese pancakes, golden on the outside, soft in the middle, finished with yogurt, blueberries and honey.

some mornings you’re just hungry. others you want something that tastes like being little again.

syrniki for two

250g twaróg
1 egg
4 tbsp plain flour, plus a little for shaping
1 tbsp honey
a pinch of salt
butter or neutral oil, for frying

to serve:
yogurt
blueberries
honey

1. mash the twaróg with the egg, honey and salt, then mix in the flour until combined. keep the mixture soft rather than working it into a firm dough.
2. lightly flour your hands and shape into small, thick pancakes. dust the outsides with just enough flour to stop them sticking.
3. heat a little butter or oil in a pan over medium-low heat. fry for around 3–4 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. keep the heat gentle so the centres have time to cook.
4. spoon over yogurt, add blueberries and finish with a drizzle of honey. eat warm.

what’s the breakfast you still ask for when you go home?

save this for a slow morning. follow @orangefennel for whatever we’re craving next.
