For the pancakes, mix milk with flour and salt in a bowl until smooth, then stir in eggs and let batter rest for about 15 minutes. Melt butter in a pan and then successively cook the batter into 4 thin pancakes until golden brown. Remove from the pan and allow to cool.

Healthy, because
Smoked salmon is a good supplier of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). The positive effect of omega-3 fatty acids on heart health is beyond question. DHA can also push our grey cells: they are components of membranes, especially of nerve cells, which in turn are often branched via communication interfaces (synapses). Thus the omega-3 fatty acid promotes our brain networking; thinking, learning and remembering are improved.
Even smarter
Instead of parsley, you can also decorate the salmon pancake rolls with dill. The essential oils from the kitchen herb can make heavy foods more digestible and reduce stomach aches and flatulence.
