Ingredients

  • 309 gram Milk
  • 120 gram Cornmeal Whole Grain
  • 60 gram Corn Grits
  • 2 pcs. Egg
  • 6 gram Salt
  • Oil Neutral in taste. For frying
  • 500 gram Ground Beef
  • 3.5 gram Smoked paprika
  • 0.5 gram Oregano
  • 2.8 gram Garlic Powder
  • 2.1 gram Cumin
  • 1 gram Cilantro
  • Oil Neutral in taste. For frying

Instructions

Corn Pancakes

  • Whisk all the ingredients together until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
  • Feel free to use an immersion blender or an electric mixer for this.
  • The key to making good pancakes is having a hot pan.
  • You probably know the one about the last pancake always turning out perfect and the first one always needing to be tossed.
  • That's only because your pan isn't hot enough when you start.
  • So, perhaps start by heating the pan in advance.
  • This recipe makes 8 corn pancakes, and you'll need about a small tablespoon of oil per pancake.
  • Once the pan is hot, pour the oil onto the pan and a small deciliter of batter.
  • When the pancake begins to bubble a bit, flip it and cook it through on the other side.
  • Continue with the other 7 and serve immediately thereafter.

Beef Filling

  • Mix the minced beef with the spices and fry it in the oil for 15 minutes in a pan.
  • Stir the meat about every 5 minutes.

Salad

  • My salad isn't so Mexican, but it's still packed with good flavors.
  • Wash the ingredients and cut them into slices/cubes.

Serving

  • Place a pancake on your plate and spread a bit of crème fraiche and salsa on it.
  • Place the meat on top and then the salad with baby spinach, sugar snap peas, pineapple, radishes, avocado, tomatoes, and spring onions.
  • Enjoy your meal.
