Tips To Make BEST Goan Pancakes (Alle Belle)
Here are simple tips and tricks to make the delicious allebelle recipe at home.
- Grease the Pan: Make sure to grease the pan properly before adding the batter to it. Proper greasing will prevent it from sticking.
- Sweetness: According to your taste adjust the sweetness with jaggery quantity.
- Thickness: Alle Belle pancakes typically prepared are thin and when spread evenly on the pan it gains a light and airy texture. But for thicker pancakes add less water according to your choice for thickness and viceversa.
- Fresh Coconut: It is better to use freshly grated coconut than shredded one.
Pancake Variations
Prepare alle belle (pancakes in goan style) with different variations, for different and better flavors of your choice:
- Chocolate Taste: Add 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder to the pancake batter to get the chocolatey flavor. Keep the filling mixture the same.
- Fruit mixture: Also add finely chopped fruits like bananas or strawberries to the filling to get the fruit flavor. Add any fruit of your choice, try it out.
- Nutty Flavor: For a nutty-like flavor, add finely chopped pieces of cashews, almonds, and pistachios over the filling, before rolling the pancake. Try adding any available nuts of your choice.
- Nutmeg: Instead of cardamon try adding nutmeg to alle belle or both can be used. It turns out good.
- Coconut Milk: Use it instead of milk, I have tried using coconut milk, and it turns out very awesome
