Make the kitchen a healing space

Spinach pancakes

November 3, 2014 · Gluten free bakes, Lunch recipe, Main course recipe · Leave a Comment

The inspiration for this recipe came from the wonderful ‘Green kitchen stories’ website but naturally, I had to make my own version. These are savory pancakes and you can fill them with what ever you desire. I loaded mine with my red lentils and sweet potato ‘humus’ (see recipe in previous post), mushrooms tossed in soy sauce and lots of fresh veg and green leaves but you can try any other spread or fresh goat cheese, thick Greek yoghurt or tapenade, the possibilities are endless… Top it up with lots of green leaves, sprouts and fresh vegetables like grated carrots, beet, sliced tomatoes, cucumber or radishes and you get a fantastic light meal.

Vibrant green, gluten free, super delicious and nutritious savory pancakes

Makes 8-10 pancakes

1 cup (gluten free) rolled oats, soaked in 1 cup water for an hour
1 cup water or any nut milk you like (I like almond milk)
2 organic free range eggs
3/4 cup gluten free flour (I used a mixture of rice, corn and quinoa)
1 tsp salt
Freshly ground black pepper
A pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
A handful of basil leaves
100g fresh spinach, washed and drained
1 tsp cumin seeds
Coconut oil for frying

Place soaked oat with its liquid in a blender container, add the rest of the ingredients apart from the cumin seeds, and blend on a high speed to a smooth and creamy batter.
Mix in the cumin seeds without blending so you see them whole in your pancakes.

Heat some coconut oil in a heavy pancake frying pan and pour a ladleful of the batter at a time, spreading it evenly by tilting the pan. Cook for few minutes till the bottom is golden brown and then flip carefully using a wide spatula.
Repeat with the rest of the batter wile keeping your prepared pancakes warm.

As mentioned above, be creative with fillings and toppings for this savory pancakes.

Tip 1: you are more then welcome to replace the spinach with other greens like parsley, rocket and so on.

Tip 2: leftover batter can be stored in the fridge for up to two days. In my house it was eaten for (next morning) breakfast, topped with coconut-yoghurt chutney and rocket, why not!?

MY WEEKLY TIP

COOKING CRISIS

 

Staring at the open fridge

Staring at the open fridge

Have you ever found yourself staring at your open fridge or larder, scanning the products and ingredients and have absolutely no idea what to make with them, or what do you feel like eating?
And what if this situation repeats itself again and again over a period of time?
Well, you are experiencing a ‘cooking crisis’. It happens to the best of cooks!
Here are some key strategy solutions to over come the crisis:
1. Go back to basics, opt for the most simple recipes that always work.
2. Make a list of your all time favourites and stick to them for some time till you feel creativity is crawling back.
3. Focus on one ingredient you have or feel like eating and look for recipes using it as the main ingredient.
4. Think of what type of dish you feel like eating; soup, salad, burgers, pie etc. and look for a recipe for that.
5. Cook together with friends and family or initiate potluck dinners. Sharing cooking and eating with others can inspire you and boost your creativity in the kitchen.
