How to wrap
“Bake pancakes is half the battle,” experienced chefs are convinced. You need to know the recipe for how to wrap the finished baked goods. After all, these are not simple pancakes, but royal ones - with salmon and red caviar. There are many different recipes and methods.
Pouch. The pink salmon filling is placed in the middle of the pancake (see photo), the edges are pulled up, giving the product the shape of a small bag, and it is tied with a sprig of parsley.
Rectangle. The pancake is rolled up, as in the photo, from the top edge, aligning the “sides” and giving it a geometric shape.
Kulek. Recipe No. 1. Fold the pancake in half, mentally divide into 2 parts. You need to start forming the bag from the center of the semicircular side. Fold both edges of the pancake, overlapping them on top of each other. Turn the upper part of the resulting cone slightly wrong side out. Fill the middle with filling. Kulek. Recipe No. 2. Fold the pancake in half and place the filling on the edge. Wrap the pancake in the form of a regular bag.
Snail. Apply a thin layer of filling to the pancake and roll it into a thin tube. Then roll the tube like a snail, as in the photo. You can secure the “structure” with a toothpick.
Rolls. The filling is placed on the edge. Fold the perpendicular edges a little. Wrap the pancake tightly and then cut into slices, as in the photo.
Envelope. One of the most traditional ways. The filling is placed on one edge of the pancake. The top edge is folded, and then the sides are turned in.
Whatever recipe for cooking and method of decorating pancakes with fish filling, including canned food, the hostess chooses, the main thing is that they are made from the heart.

Baking pancakes
For baking, experienced housewives advise choosing high-quality frying pans. It’s better if it’s grandma’s old cast-iron frying pan, on which nothing has ever burned and will not burn. If you don’t have one, then give preference to heavy, thick-walled dishes with high edges.
To prevent pancakes from sticking to the surface, it must be thoroughly heated before pouring the dough. The better the pan is heated, the faster you will bake a stack of delicious pancakes. To get thin pancakes, use an incomplete ladle. Distribute the dough evenly but quickly throughout the pan.
To make the pancake elastic and pliable when rolled into a roll, it is recommended to fry it quickly. A pancake that has been left in the pan for too long is a rubbery meal that even a tasty filling cannot save.

Salmon and cream cheese filling for pancake rolls
Cream or curd cheese does not require any special preparation for the filling. But you need to remove the salmon from the packaging and cut it into thin slices, trying to free the fish meat from the skin. To do this, it is better to take a long and sharp knife. In this article I will show 2 ways to make the filling.
1 way
Grease the surface of the pancake with soft cheese and place a slice of salmon in the middle.
Then cut it into 2-3 pieces using an oblique cut and place it on a serving plate.
Method 2
Lay out 4-5 pancakes on a cutting board, covering one side slightly with the other. Lubricate them with soft cheese.
We lay out the fish slices at some distance from each other,
and then roll the pancakes into a roll.
Using a sharp knife, make transverse cuts at a distance of 1-1.5 cm.
Transfer the rolls to a serving platter and serve.
Tenderer than tender
There is another “tender” recipe for pancakes with salmon.
This option is much tastier (judging by the reviews) than the above. In addition, it will also be dietary, unlike those that use quite fatty cream cheese or mayonnaise. We are talking about pancakes, which are filled with the freshest soft avocado and the same tender and aromatic red fish. For preparation you need:
- pancakes;
- red fish;
- a couple of spoons of low-fat sour cream;
- a couple of drops of lemon juice;
- fresh soft avocado;
- greenery;
- caviar (for serving).
In a separate small bowl, mix sour cream, finely chopped herbs, and a pinch of salt. You can add a little horseradish or ground red pepper for spiciness. Place the mixture in the refrigerator for ten minutes.
Wash the avocado, remove the skin, remove the pit and cut the flesh into small strips. Take the pancakes already cooled and spread them with sour cream sauce. Place fish slices mixed with avocado pieces on top. We wrap the roll. Cut it into portions. Place a little caviar on top of each piece.
Pancakes with salmon and caviar
I usually serve this dish not as a main dish, but as an appetizer. Alternatively, a good replacement for holiday sandwiches. It is better to make the dough slightly salted, since we use products that contain enough salt.
Red fish can be salted at home; if you buy it in a store, pay close attention to the sales dates. The salmon in this recipe does not undergo heat treatment.
