From the French cr\u00eape that is paper-thin and somewhat crispy, to the thicker pancakes prepared with a raising agent in other countries, pancakes are enjoyed in a variety of ways. In South Africa, we generally prepare them like the French, and heap them with cinnamon sugar and lemon juice, or syrup.<\/p>\n<p>As a way to show their appreciation for Pancake Day (and the Christian tradition of Shrove Tuesday) on 1 March 2022, dynamic Twin chefs, foodies and Laager Rooibos ambassadors, Lebo and Tebo Ndala from @withlovefromthetwins, have shared three of their pancake recipes with a twist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPancakes are the perfect food to bring family and friends together, and they are one of our absolute favourite foods!\u201d said Tebo. \u201cWe love experimenting with different flavours in our recipes while bringing in the distinctive local flavour and aroma of Laager Rooibos,\u201d Lebo added. \u201cTo inspire the South African public to try new things, we\u2019re introducing them to a savoury pancake option with a distinctive South African flavour, alongside two delicious and different sweet pancake recipes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Recipe 1: Savour cr\u00eapes with a Laager Rooibos Bobotie filling<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients:<\/p>\n<p>Pancake batter<br \/>\u00b7 2 eggs<br \/>\u00b7 1 \u00bd cups of milk<br \/>\u00b7 1 cup all-purpose flour<br \/>\u00b7 1 Tbsp sugar<br \/>\u00b7 1 Tbsp vegetable oil<\/p>\n<p>Bobotie ingredients<br \/>\u00b7 1 onion, finely chopped<br \/>\u00b7 15ml curry powder<br \/>\u00b7 2ml cumin<br \/>\u00b7 3ml turmeric<br \/>\u00b7 500g beef mince<br \/>\u00b7 40ml chutney<br \/>\u00b7 40ml raisins<br \/>\u00b7 250ml strongly brewed Laager Rooibos tea<\/p>\n<p>Method:<\/p>\n<p>Pancake batter<br \/>\u00b7 Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl until batter is thin and smooth.<br \/>\u00b7 Pour \u00bc cup of batter into a buttered pan and swirl around until cr\u00eape is thin.<br \/>\u00b7 Cook for 1-2 minutes per side.
