Mix the first 2 ingredients in approximately 1:1 proportions and adjust to the consistency of play dough. Add salt to taste. Mold into the thickness of a pancake and fry in oil until each side is firm. Fry covered over low heat for better consistency. Split open one side and fill with sweet or savory fillings.
If cooking several, just brown the outsides in frying pan then bake in oven for 15-18 min at 350 to cook the insides. Remove or open oven and wait 5-10 minutes before eating so the inside is done.
