NOTES
Optionally you can brush frying pan with a little bit of oil to prevent sticking or replace ½ cup of milk with oil, I used grapeseed oil (it will prevent pancakes from sticking when your frying pan is not so new).
“Krokiety” means in Polish: filled pancakes / crepes and they are usually folded the way shown on the picture.
oh my god – you use vegeta? :D i’m croatian, and this is where vegeta was invented. i didn’t realise it was used outside the former yugoslavia :)
btw, love the photo of the pancakes!
