Baked Ratatouille Pancakes in White Sauce, Jain Pancake Recipe

Simple pancakes transform into a continental delicacy, when stuffed with ratatouille, a traditional French stewed vegetable dish. The ratatouille is made with brinjals, combined with an assortment of other veggies and spice powders.
You can be innovative in the preparation of the ratatouille and experiment with other veggie combinations too – although brinjals are a must. Here, we have enhanced the recipe further by topping the stuffed pancakes with white sauce and cheese and baking them to perfection.

Preparation Time: 15 minutes.
Cooking Time: 15 minutes.
Serves 4.
Baking Temperature: 200°C (400°F).
Baking Time: 20 minutes.

For the pancakes
5 tbsp plain flour (maida)
5 tbsp cornflour
Salt to taste
2 tsp melted butter
5 tbsp milk
Melted butter for cooking

For the ratatouille stuffing
1 tbsp oil
1 tsp finely chopped green chillies
½ cup finely chopped cabbage
½ cup finely chopped tomatoes
½ tsp chilli powder
1½ cups peeled and chopped brinjals (baingan / eggplant)
½ cup boiled green peas
Salt to taste

For the baking
1½ cups white sauce
½ cup grated processed cheese

For the pancakes
1. Combine all the ingredients along with approx. 5 tbsp of water in a deep bowl and mix well till no lumps remain using a whisk to make a batter of pouring consistency.
2. Pour ¼ cup of the batter on a greased non-stick pan (griddle) and rotate in a circular motion to get a 100 mm. (4”) diameter thin circle.
3. Cook it using a little melted butter till it turns light brown in colour from both the sides.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to make 3 more pancakes. Keep aside.

For the ratatouille stuffing
1. Heat the oil in a broad non-stick pan, add the green chillies and cabbage and sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute.
2. Add the tomatoes and chilli powder, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 2 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
3. Add the brinjal, green peas, salt and 2 tbsp of water, mix well and cover with a lid and cook on a medium flame for 8 minutes, while stirring occasionally. Keep aside.

How to proceed
1. Divide the ratatouille stuffing into 4 equal portions. Keep aside.
2. Place a pancake on a clean, dry surface, put a portion of the ratatouille stuffing in the centre and roll it up tightly.
3. Repeat step 2 to stuff 3 more pancakes.
4. Pour ¼ cup of white sauce and spread evenly on a baking dish, put the stuffed pancakes over it.
5. Top it with the remaining 1¼ cups of white sauce and sprinkle cheese evenly over it.
6. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 15 minutes.
Serve immediately.
