Finely chop the chard and crumble the minci cheese.
Heat the pan over medium heat for 2 minutes before adding the batter, until the oiled surface shines.
Chop the chard finely and turn it in the pan for 3 minutes.
Whisk the eggs, flour, water, and salt into a pourable batter.
Fold the chard and minci into the batter and cook both sides in the oiled pan.
Transfer the kaygana to a warm plate and serve while the cheese is soft.
💡 Tip: Turning the chard for 3 minutes first lets it release water, so the kaygana spreads more easily.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with tea and fresh tomatoes.
