Belarusian Machanka with Yeast Crepes
Machanka is a traditional Belarusian and Ukranian dish. There are many variations of this dish, but here I share a recipe of machanka (sauce) made with pork sausages, beer, onion and sour cream. It's usually served with crepes. Enjoy!

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 onion (medium, chopped)

4. While the sausages are cooking, let's make crepes. Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto it, tilting the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly. When the bottom is light brown (after about a minute or less), loosen crepe with a spatula, flip and cook the other side. Repeat the process with the rest of the batter.
