How to make chisciöi (swiss salty pancakes)

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil reduces saturated fat while maintaining flavor.

cheese

🥗Healthier: nut-based cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nut-based cheese is lower in calories and dairy-free.

smoked meat

🥗Healthier: grilled chicken

💰Cheaper: pork sausage

Grilled chicken is leaner and healthier.

flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

Mix together flour and salt in a bowl, using equal parts flour and salt.

Add a tablespoon of salt to the mixture, possibly a bit less than that.

Add olive oil and enough water to create a mixture that is not too hard or too soft, it should drop easily from a spoon.

Once the mixture is ready, add cheese to it, using a local cheese that is not too hard.

The mixture is then ready to be cooked directly over the fire.

Cook for about 10 minutes until done.
