¼ tsp allspice
½ litres water

500 ml milk
2 tbsp rice bran oil
½ tsp salt
Additional filling ingredients (to add when the filling is ready):--
1 tsp marjoram
1 tsp SIDS SALT & PEPPER

Directions
Filling:
In the large pot cook together meat, SIDS HOT WORCESTER SAUCE, vegetables, parsley, SIDS SALT & PEPPER, allspice and bay leaves in hot water for 40-50 minutes until the meat is tender.
After meat and vegetables are ready take them out from the pot and let them cool down. Keep the broth! We might need it for the preparation of the filling, when the filling is too dry.
Grind the meat and vegetables in a meat mincer. Squeeze the bread roll so it doesn't contain any water, add to the mixture with SIDS SALT & PEPPER and marjoram. At this point try the mixture and correct the seasoning and broth, if needed. Add raw eggs into the stuffing. Mix all ingredients well.
Prepare the Pancakes:
In the large bowl mix flour, eggs, milk, oil and salt using a wire mixer.
Take a large pan and heat it up on medium heat. You don't need oil to fry the pancakes. Use between 120-150 ml of the mixture for every pancake.
Fry each pancake on medium heat until done. (the first side 2 minutes, the other one 1 minute)
Set the pancakes aside.
Roll the krokiety:
Take one pancake and place it on the flat surface. Add 2 tablespoons of the filling in the middle of the pancake and press the filling toward the bottom, keeping it about 2 cm from the right, left and bottom. The section in the top should not contain the filling.
Fold the bottom over the filling, fold the sides in and continue rolling.
Coating:
Prepare three deep plates: one with flour, one with eggs and one with breadcrumbs.
Add salt to the plate with an egg. Beat the eggs using the fork for few seconds to mix the ingredients.
Carefully coat krokiety with flour, egg and lastly breadcrumbs. Don't skip the flour! Otherwise your coating will fall off the pancake while frying!
Frying:
Preheat the oil on the medium heat.
Place krokiety in hot oil, fry until golden brown, about one minute on each side. (all the sides)
