Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Puree corn & press through sieve to yield about 3 cups.
  2. 2
    To the corn add cream, egg, flour, sugar & salt, & mix well before letting batter rest 15 minutes.
  3. 3
    Onto hot griddle or cast iron skillet, pour 1 tablespoon oil, then pour 1/4 cup batter for each pancake.
  4. 4
    Fry, turning once until lightly browned & firm on both sides.
  5. 5
    Remove from griddle & serve wrapped around a slice of cheese.

This is mildly sweet and very delicious corn based pancakes. I tried making these using 1/4 C per recipe and I could not flip it easily - kept on breaking up. Once I reduced the batter to about 2 1/2 inch diameter, had much easier time cooking and flipping these. The trick is to make sure one side is nicely dried a bit before turning. Instead of eating these with cheese, they were served with a dollop of sour cream. I am now going to look for more recipes using harina pan. Thank you Sydney Mike for introducing me to a new ingredient and posting this yummy recipe.
