Sweet pie with berries
Another original recipe for baking with mayonnaise. This time our baking will be cooked not in the oven, but in a frying pan. Ingredients:

Preparation:Break an egg into a bowl and put mayonnaise in there, then mix everything well. Now add a tablespoon of sugar, soda and mix again. Next, start adding flour into the dough, tablespoon by tablespoon. The result should be a dough of the consistency of sour cream, so adjust the amount of flour by eye. Now take a regular frying pan, grease it with oil and put it on the fire. When the frying pan is hot, pour the dough into it, put the berries in and sprinkle with the remaining sugar. Cover the frying pan with a lid and bake the pie on the lowest heat for fifteen to twenty minutes. That's it! Put the finished pie on a plate and serve.
