My mother was an innovative and creative home cook. I have very fond memories of the different things she would concoct to feed us.I used to love those as a child.There are so many interesting and delicious meals which I’ve enjoyed, and still make today, simply because they are delicious 🙂
This stuffed pancake recipe is taught by cooking expert Kokab Khuaja. I was a kid when my mother first time tried it and the taste i still can feel. I will write variations here. All are finger licking delicious.
Pancakes are perfect base for so many different fillings. Try with variations. From sweet to savory….you will find them delicious 🙂

- Add thinly chopped vegetables and cook on high heat.
- Set a side .
- Now place filling on one side of pancake and roll it, use flour paste to seal edges. I normally use toothpicks to close the edges.
- Fry in oil or you cake bake them also.
- I usually fry them in less oil but you can deep fry them.
- Pancake 1 you can freeze after filling .
- But pancake 2 will crack so use them within 2-3 days time.
- You can take chicken boneless and cook as mentioned above then shred it and add veggies. As i have used..:)
This is a matter of immense pleasure for me that a renowned website KFoods, published STUFFED PANCAKES on their website.
Fantastic idea, I adore these pancakes!!
nicely explained 🙂 i am sure they tasted yummy and delicious 🙂
And healthy too 🙂
If we deep fry won’t the filling come out?
No Palwasha, secure them with tooth pic as you can see in the pic. You can fry in less oil too. But filling will not come out in both methods.
And what is the flour mixture which you have mentioned for sealing them?
Its just a paste of flour mixed with water.
Flour means maida r simple flour?
Sehreen its Maida.
Can we freeze them too?
Sabahat you can but for a week only (stuffed one) , but if you want to freeze only pancakes then Yes you can freeze them in zip lock bag for a month.Thaw it on room temperature and fill with any filling and fry them.
