Chocolate Pancake

                                                  
Amongst the many cuisines I had during my abroad tours, the Chocolate Pancakes made in Malaysia is still very much embedded in my mind. Both me and my husband stayed at his cousin sister's home in Kuala Lampur. In early morning both of us had to leave home early for our extensive sight seeing and as a result didn't have much time to have full course breakfast. So her sister prepared such  Chocolate Pancakes which was not only utterly delicious but also very fulfilling to sustain us till late lunch time.


Serves: 12, Preparation time: 15 minutes


Ingredients:
2 Eggs
3 tbsp Melted Chocolate
1 cup all purpose Flour
1 cup milk 
3/4 cup Curd
2 tbsp Sugar
2 tsp Baking powder
1 tsp Baking soda
Oil for frying
Pinch of alt


For Decoration:
Powdered Sugar 
Chocolate Syrup (optional)


Method:
Mix all the ingredients except oil in a large bowl. Whisk until well blended. Set aside for 5 minutes. Grease a nonstick skillet with little oil. When pan is hot, pour pancake batter. Flip once the batter is set around edges. When lightly browned on both sides. Remove pancakes using a spatula. Make pancakes in the same manner with the remaining batter.
                                                        
For decoration sprinkle with powdered sugar.
                                                                              
Serve pancake with melted chocolate syrup  or with any of your favorite toppings.

shaikh said...

wonderful recipe. i wouold like to ask that wether we can use chocolate powder or coco powder instaead of melted chocolate?

Hamaree Rasoi said...

Shaikh :
Thanks for liking this chocolate pancake, and yes you can substitue melted chocolate with coco powder, if you find the batter too thick then you can also add 1/2 cup buttermilk. Hope you enjoy making these pancakes. Let me know if you need to ask anything else.
