       1 c  All-purpose flour
 
       1    Egg
 
     2/3 c  Milk
 
     2/3 c  Cold water
 
       5 tb Corn oil
 
       1    Onion, chopped
 
       8 oz Lean ground bbef
 
       2    Carrots, grated
 
       1    Parsnip, grated
 
       2 ts Curry Powder
 
       1 tb Tomato paste
 
       2 ts Cornstarch
 
     2/3 c  Beef stock
 
       1    Egg, beaten
 
            Vegetable oil 4 deep frying
 
            Carrot strip (opt)
 
  
 
   Sift flour into a bowl. Make a well in center and add egg. Gradually stir
 
   in milk and beat well until smooth. Stir in cold water and beat well. Pour
 
   batter into a pitcher.
 
   
 
   Heat a little oil in a small skillet and pour off excess. Pour a little
 
   batter into skillet, swirling skillet to spread batter evenly over bottom
 
   to make a thin coating. Sook until underside is golden, then turn pancake
 
   out of pan (do not cook other side). Repeat with remaining batter, adding
 
   more oil pan each time, to make 8 pancakes.
 
   
 
   Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a saucepan. Add onion, ground beef, carrots,
 
   parsnip and curry powder. Cook gently 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add
 
   tomato paste and mix well. Blend cornstarch with a little stock. Add
 
   remaining stock to ground beef mixture and bring to a boil. Add cornstarch
 
   mixture and cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Simmer mixture 10 minutes.
 
   
 
   Lay pancakes, cooked-sides up, on a flat surface. Spread filling in a 2″
 
   horizontal lines across center to within 1-1/2″ of side edges. Fold these
 
   side edges over mixture and then fold remaining top and bottom edges over
 
   to cover filling. Brush with egg and fold pancakes in half. Chill 1 hour.
 
   
 
   Half fill a deep fat fryer or saucepan with oil; heat to 350'F. (175'C.) or
 
   until a 1/2″ bread cube browns in 40 seconds. Fry folded pancakes, 4 at a
 
   time, 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and heated through. Drain on paper
 
   towels. Garnish with carrot strip, if desired, and serve hot.
