Estonian way barley bread



Actually i have no idea how to call it in English, in Estonian it is called odrajahu karask. And for a salty thing it is really really good ! I remember trying it when i was a child and even then i liked it, especially when it comes out of the oven and eaten with eggs and butter paste!
I think it one of the best traditional things we have here :)

Things to make the batter :

125 gr of curd cheese (when in France, also can substitute with 20% fromage blanc)
200 ml of milk or kefir
a pinch of salt
1 ts of sugar
1 egg
50 gr of butter, melted
150 gr barley flour
50 gr of regular wheat flour
1 ts of baking powder

Heat the oven to 180°degrees
Beat the egg with curd cheese and milk/kefir, salt and sugar.
Mix in a separate bowl the 2 flours with the baking powder.
Then mix in the melted butter lastly the mix of flours and the baking powder.
Bake in a smaller size pan for ab 20 min.
Enjoy as it is or also with a soup it is an absolute yumm !
I added some roasted hemp seeds on top and had it with a fried egg :)
