Pancakes

INTERESTING. - I just may try that recipe.
(Instead of hand-beating the mixture, I'll use an electric mixer.)

Two similar dishes made by "the common folks" in Texas, "interior" Mexico & oddly enough in Venezuela/Columbia are what South Texicans call "stacked enchiladas".

Starting at the (usually heated!!) plate, stack a corn tortilla, top with refried/borracho beans, another tortilla, a layer of shredded meat, tortilla, a layer of cheese/chopped onions/cilantro, (repeat layers as often as you wish) & top with another tortilla & a layer of lettuce/tomatoes/cheese.
(Most places in "interior" Mexico & northern South American nations, the lettuce is replaced with shredded cabbage or another sort of greens. The chopped/shredded meat "down there" is often goat/mutton/horsemeat/monkey/"bush meat" & often mixed with leftover rice.)

Stacked enchiladas (or whatever the local dish is called in each Latin American nation) are CHEAP to make, a way to use up "leftovers", filling, nutritious & generally tasty.

Here's a painting of Chinese pancakes being made.

Don't forget the fried egg on top. I don't know if they do it that way deep in the interior of Mexico but it is a common practice in the Mexican border towns and in Texas. The stacked enchilada reaches the pinnacle of perfection at a restaurant in the Dallas area called Abuelos. I have eaten them in many different places but have not found any place that can match the stacked enchaladas topped with a fried egg at Abuelos. YUM-O!!! :thumbsup:

What about fritters ?...They are basically a pancake with fruit in the batter...

 

[satx78247]

Sounds FINE though I've NOT been to Abuelo's.
(I'll give that a try the next time I do a stack.)

Pancakes!......

A pancake, as well as a tortilla may both be flat bread, but that does not mean they are the same thing any more than does the fact a chicken and a cow are both meat makes them the same thing.

A chicken an a cow are both meat but,.....Different pancakes are more analogous to different types of steaks.....Rib-eye, porterhouse, hanger etc....

Nice argument though... :thumbsup:

I would venture that a pancake is a type of flat/grilled bread and not the other way around. All ships are boats but not all boats are ships :idunno:

Are you suggesting that a pancake is the suitable hat for Br'er Rabbit??

Thanks for noting that. Most people I know would be pretty upset if they ordered a stack of pancakes and got a stack of tortillas instead. Pancakes have a light texture. Tortillas do not.

I'm not worrying about it, though. Some people who post here are quite stubborn, but that's okay. It takes all kinds.

The term "Broaden your Horizons" comes from the fact that...with every step, the horizon gets wider....
It's a big world....Take comfort in the fact that no matter where you go there is probably something resembling a pancake..... :grin:

As do some "cow pies" but I can't imagine being able to put enough syrup on them to make them palatable. :rotf: How much nourishment would be in one? I have no idea, perhaps a vegan survivalist might know. :haha:

Okay, I'm tired of beating this dead horse :dead: I think I'll look for some gun stuff on the forum. :hatsoff:

Here you go!....Vegan pancakes. :grin:
