4 servings
Ingredients
Quantity | Ingredient | |
---|---|---|
500 | grams | Flour (a generous lb) |
½ | litre | Water (a pint) |
Salt to taste | ||
3 | tablespoons | To 4 tb clarified butter for baking |
2 | tablespoons | Clarified butter for topping |
1 | Onion, chopped |
Directions
From the Allgaeu area.
From grandmother's more thrifty times; rarely encountered today.
In a skillet, melt the clarified butter, then add the flour.
Gradually add enough water to obtain a viscous batter. Cook the batter in the skillet until the top is done. The bottom will form a crust, the so-called 'Schuepet'. In a separate skillet, brown the onion in the remaining clarified butter. Pour the onion and fat over the 'Saebrei'. This used to be served with a glass of milk.
Serves 4.
