Dan palačinki

Yes we are back in my kitchen and that's good because today we're learning all

Evo nas opet u mojoj kuhinji, to je dobro jer danas ćemo naučiti sve

about pancake day, but what exactly is pancake day? Hmm pancake day is basically

a day when we eat pancakes it always falls on a Tuesday and was originally

called Shrove Tuesday, some people still do call it Shrove Tuesday. It comes

zove se Pokladni utorak. Dolazi

before Ash Wednesday. Now the date each year changes but it will always come

prije Pepelnice. Datum se mijenja svake godine ali uvijek dolazi

forty-seven days before Easter. It all stems from Christian traditions.

četrdesetsedam dana prije Uskrsa. Sve proizlazi iz kršćanske tradicije.

Originally known as Shrove Tuesday that name comes from the word Shrive which

Poznate kao Pokladni utorak. U engleskom dolazi od riječi "shrive" koja

means to take absolution for your sins by doing penance. What does that mean?

znači pokoru za učinjene grijehe. Što to znači?

Well basically around this time of year you would be called to give confession.

U to vrijeme godine pozivaju vas na ispovijed.

Please forgive me I've done terrible things. Then once you've confessed you're

Oprostite, molim vas, učinila sam ružne stvari. Jednom ako ste se ispovijedili

given absolution which means that you are basically forgiven, you're let off

grijesi su vam otpušteni i oprošteni

but you do have to do penance and penance is where you punish yourself. You

preostaje vam da vršite pokoru na način da sami sebe kaznite za grijehe.

give yourself punishment and the punishment is what is known as Lent. This

Vršeći pokoru za grijehe kroz određeno vrijeme zovemo Korizmom.

is 40 days of fasting so before the penance begins before Lent takes place

To je 40 dana posta i odricanja. Prije nastupa Korizme, potrebno je

the best thing to do is to get rid of all the naughty fatty foods from the

play. So your pancakes are basically a way to get rid of things like butter,

To je smisao pokladnog utorka odnosno dana palačinki. Utrošak namirnica, npr maslaca,

eggs, milk, sugar, all the nice rich sweet and fatty foods and here's something I

jaja, mlijeka, šećera i sve fine hrane i što sam

only learned today; In America pancake day is called Mardi Gras which is French

for Fat Tuesday. So enough about the history what do

Dosta o povijesti trebamo

we need to make a pancake? We need 200 grams of plain flour. 350 to 400

ispeći palačinke. Trebamo 200 gr običnog brašna, 3,5 do 4,0 dcl

milliliters of milk or you can do half milk and half water for a lighter

mlijeka, može se koristiti pola vode za lakše palačinke.

pancake.You need two large eggs which will be lightly whisked 1 tablespoon of

Zamutimo dva veća jajeta, 1 žlicu ulja i

vegetable oil and then you can add a pinch of salt and you'll also need

prstohvat soli. Trebat će vam i ulje za pečenje.

vegetable oil for frying. Ok I'm ready to start cooking my ingredients are ready

Spremna sam za početak, sastojci su ovdje

and the first thing I need is my flour. Now we're supposed to put the flour in a

prvo mi treba brašno koje stavimo u

bowl and make a well in the middle of the bowl so basically you just make a

zdjelu napravimo rupicu u sredini. pamo

hole in the middle of the flour like that then we pour in the milk. Oh dear ok

U rupicu nalijemo mlijeko.

anyway and then the eggs then I take my whisk and I'm going to try to mix the

Zatim jaja i uzimam mješalicu

egg and milk together first by doing little stirs and then I'll make it

i lagano zamiješam to zajedno.

bigger to try and incorporate the flour. This is gonna get messy I can feel it.

Dalje miješam sve dok se sve brašno ne uključi u smjesu.

I think I need to bake a bigger bowl. Bigger bowl, right let's do this properly.

Mislim da mi treba veća zdjela za to.

And we keep mixing until we have a smooth batter now we add our tablespoon

Nastavljamo s miješanjem dok ne dobijemo jednoličnu masu, dodamo ulje

of oil then you take a crepe pan or an omelette pan is what I'm going to use just

Uzmemo tavu za palačinke ili za omlet. Upotrijebit ću

a small frying type pan with a nonstick bottom. You're going to take a tissue dip

malu tavu na koju ne prijanja masa koju pečemo. Malo rol papira

it into the oil, kitchen roll ideally, and then wipe the oil onto the base of the

umočimo u ulje i pomažemo dno tave.

pan then we're going to heat the pan over a medium heat for one minute. It's

Zagrijemo tavu na osrednjoj vatri oko 1 minute.

all going wrong I've managed to drop the whisk and cover myself in butter this is

Sve može ispasti loše ako ne pustim pjenjaču

why you should have an apron, definitely add that to my shopping list.

i ne stavim kakvu pregaču, dodajte to na listu.

We're ready okay okay okay so then we get a ladle make sure you've got a

Spremni smo, eh u redu, uzet ćemo ovu kutljaču

nice spread I haven't made these for such a long time please keep your

da ravnomjerno razlijemo po dnu tave, nisam to dugo radila, držite mi figu

fingers crossed that I don't make a complete mess of this while I'm showing

da ne napravim cirkus od ovoga dok vam pokazujem.

it to everyone ah okay so you're only supposed to cook for around 30 to 40

Ovo bi trebalo peći 40 do 50 sekundi

seconds but it looks like my pan wasn't hot enough we'll see. Now to check

ali kako izgleda moja tava nije dovoljno zagrijana vidjet ćemo. Sada

the underneath side of the pancake you need like a palette knife I think it's

provjeravajući donji dio trebao bi nam tzv nož za razmazivanje

called which is long and flat I don't seem to have one. I'm ill-equipped but I

dovoljno dug i širok, nemam ga baš ovdje, slabo sam opremljena

do have a spatula and and the rubber type spatula scraper thing so I'm gonna

Upotrijebit ću kuharsku špahlu, kakvu ovdje imam, da vidimo

try and use one of these.

kako će to ići.

So I'm using a wooden a wooden like thing I'm just to loosen it off the bottom

Upotrebljavam ovu drvenu lopaticu, s njom odvajam od dna tave

Once it's loose, hopefully I'm not gonna tear the whole thing, once it's loose I

Kad je odvojena, nadam se da ju neću potrgati,

can flip it. Okay so now it's loose now comes the really exciting part which is

probat ću ju okrenuti. To je uzbudljiv trenutak u ovom poslu.

the pancake flip so to get it on to its other side you have to flip it now I've

Treba ju okrenuti u zraku na drugu stranu.

not flipped a pancake for a long time so let's hope this goes well. You get it

Nisam prevrtala to zaista dugo vremena, valjda će ići dobro.

nice and loose to the edge of the pan hey I'm so glad that stayed together I've done this

Sretna sam što je ostala u komadu ipak sam to napravila.

once before in the pancake burst apart and pancake went everywhere. Okay so now

...jednom prije znam da mi se razletjela na sve strane.

you cook the other side and for about 30 to 40 seconds I honestly think my

Sada pečemo drugu stranu 30 do 40 sekundi

pan is a little bit... it's not hot enough is what I want to say, so I'm just gonna

tava izgleda nije dovoljno zagrijana, malo ću pojačati vatru

turn the heat up and keep cooking. Now there are many ways to enjoy a pancake

Ima puno načina kako se može pripremiti palačinke.

but what you have to ask yourself the most important question is are you sweet

Trebamo odlučiti hoćemo slatke ili

or are you savory? If you like to have a sweet pancake then one of the most

slane palačinke? Ako ćemo slatke

common things to do is to add sugar and lemon. I've literally just bought some

najosnovnije se dodati šećer i limun.

from Sainsbury's they're not sponsoring me by the way probably they should so

caster sugar and I've looked bought lemon juice but you can just buy fresh

lemons and squeeze on fresh lemons if you like I got this cuz it lasts a bit

longer. Some people will opt for chocolate

spread and chopped banana that is delicious I have the trusty old

jar of Nutella and I luckily just bought some bananas Nutella aren't sponsoring

me either unfortunately can you imagine the vats

of Nutella they would send me for free. Ah yay it's getting a bit of colour now

so I would brown it off on both sides and serve it up if you opt the savoury

then you can add cheese ham tomato anything you like really the whole point

of pancakes is to just use up what you've got in the house in the fridge

and in the cupboards. Right I'm ready for that pancake now if you want to make

pancakes for yourself at home then you might be interested in the notes that I

wrote for this lesson it will give you the background that I talked about as
