Notes
A delicious twist on a classic favorite
Onion pancakes can be prepared in a traditional version or enriched with various additions, such as herbs, cheese, or spices, that enhance the flavor and add character. This makes them a versatile dish that we can successfully serve for dinner, supper, or as an appetizer at a friend’s gathering.
Onion pancakes are an excellent example of how cheap and simple ingredients can become the base for delicious dishes.

This dish works in both the classic version and with the addition of herbs or spices such as paprika, garlic, or thyme, which will enhance its flavor.
