Japanese souffle pancakes 🥞

Serves: 2
Prep time: 20min
Cook time: 10 min
Ingredients
- 2 eggs, split into whites and yolks
- 20ml milk
- 30g flour
- a dash of vanilla extract
- 25g caster sugar
- butter and maple syrup to serve
Method
1. In a bowl, whisk egg whites until they form stiff peaks, then whisk in the caster sugar until smooth.
2. In a separate bowl, mix together egg yolks, milk, flour and vanilla extract until a smooth batter forms.
3. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until just combined.
4. Place a frying pan (you have the lid for) on low heat.
5. Add the batter to a piping bag, lightly grease the pan and then pipe the batter into the pan. Add a very small amount of water to the pan and cover with a lid.
6. Cook for 5 minutes on very low, and then flip and repeat, adding the water again then the lid and cook for another 5 minutes.
7. Remove from the pan and serve with butter and maple syrup.

I think you may have undercooked the middle, next time try using a nonstick or thinner pan that doesn’t retain as much heat. Looks like this heavy pan cooked the outsides too quickly, but not the insides

Jap souffle pancakes are known to be difficult to cook. Personally, I prefer this pancake to the typical Western type. Haha. Its just so fun and cute to eat!

Souffle pancakes are a dessert in Japan, not like a breakfast food to fill you up. Not quite the same comparison, but there are versions where they will like stick bacon or a burger patty to make it more like a meal.

[@thymusichour7521]

Taste is being tested for not satiastion. So it wouldn't matter whether they were consumed for breakfast or dessert.

Those reactions are unnecessary. It's just about show, like many entire videos indeed. It can even happen that something may taste not so good as espected or just fine. A "it's good, I like it." is totally fine and enough. You can't have an orgasm everytime.

He needs to be using full fat milk and cover immediately. That’s why the pancakes were clearly undercooked. Use a tester needle to check doneness.

[@jackfc5239]

That is absolutely amazing! 😋

[@Char_siu_Lo_mai_fan]

When I used to make these we used more egg whites, whipped them until you can only just hold over your head and less yolk to white ratio. 2 yolk 4 whites. Also we used a stainless steel griddle and lightly coated with oil bit very evenly so no browning in different patches. Looks super fluffy and delicious though chef! Still waiting on the Cantonese family style dinner for Heun Wah please chef!

[@raidzeromatt]

Reminds me of competitive cooking shows lol The most entertaining contest I ever saw was when they had to make stiff peaks as fast as they could then when they were done hold it over their head It was funny to watch all the people get meringue dumped on their head lol

[@HarveyJackson1967]

Hey man just wanted to let you know I'm also waiting on the Cantonese family style dinner for Heun Wah, hang in there brother

[@m.theresa1385]

For our big family style dinners everyone brings a dish. It’d be awesome if a dozen or so cooks/chefs posted their recipes here in the same day for one big beautiful meal. It still needs organizing so there’s everything from soup to appetizers on through dessert. What is your favorite to make?

[@vianka8721]

Everytime Andy posts a shorts video, just so you know your comment is the first thing I look for 😂

I think Andy will not make your dish. Because if he does! Then you will stop doing this, and everybody will miss you in the comment section. Haha!

Had these in a restaurant just off Harajuku street in Tokyo. They were incredible but felt light so I ate too many and then was very sick for the rest of the day 😂😂

I agree regular pancakes soooooo yummy. Thank you for sharing chef Andy. 🙏❤🙏❤🙏

[@Yenrei]

In a word, they're light. Literally what you'd expect. Sometimes if I'm making a cute little breakfast I'll do it, but the standard style is just more practical and more filling.

[@jamvng]

I like that are lighter than normal pancakes. I often can even eat that many pancakes because they fill you up so quick.

[@davidbutler4903]

So happy to see that Andy also reuses the little terracotta pots from his Chris’s dips.

Everything that you made is good 😋

[@Ae-ne5iy]

I’ve seen some lately with a thin sheet of mochi on the top and macha powder those sorts of things, maybe a crème anglais instead of maple syrup and it looked heavenly. More like having Japanese soufflé for breakfast than pancakes. I also recommend trying “hotcakes” which is also Japanese. Those are some of my favorite classic pancakes round the world. Certain the packs of instant “hotcake” from Japan are way better than your average American instant pancake.

[@basmichels1618]

They are delicious! Nice that you tried to make them. I think you might love them more if you ever get to go to Japan yourself.

[@agold1702]

If you put salt and a little orange and lemon zest inside and use butter milk instead of normal milk. It's really nice

Andy try sambhar once....

[@AngelaEnjiePark]

The pancakes probably should’ve been rotated once before flipping. Also, if the flour that was added wasn’t sifted beforehand, that would make a big difference too. Lastly, when layering the pancakes, they looked underdone (too soft). All of that combined would make them underwhelming just like with a regular pancake.

[@Themadhihatr]
