Hello! Today, we’re going to make some super tasty Veggie Pancakes. These pancakes are a little different from your usual breakfast ones because they’re made with onions, carrots, and potatoes. They’re crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a hint of seasoning to make them just right. Plus, they’re super easy to cook up and a fun way to eat more vegetables. Whether you need a quick snack or a side dish for your meal, these veggie pancakes are perfect. Let’s grab our ingredients and start cooking these yummy pancakes together!
Ingredients:
- 100 grams of onion (about 1/2 of a medium onion)
- 100 grams of carrot (approximately 1 large carrot)
- 356 grams of potatoes (roughly 2 medium-sized)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, adjusted to your preference
- Olive oil for frying
Instructions:
- Prepare the Vegetables: Begin by peeling the onion, carrot, and potatoes. Finely grate all three vegetables into a large mixing bowl. The finer the vegetables, the more uniform the pancakes will cook.
- Combine Ingredients: Crack the egg into the bowl with the grated vegetables. Add the two tablespoons of all-purpose flour to the mix. Season generously with salt and black pepper according to your taste preferences.
- Mix Well: Stir the mixture until all the ingredients are well combined and the vegetables are evenly coated with the egg and flour mixture. This will help bind the pancakes together when cooking.
- Heat the Pan: Place a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of olive oil to cover the bottom. Allow the oil to heat up until it’s hot but not smoking.
- Cook the Pancakes: Once the oil is hot, spoon portions of the vegetable mixture into the pan, flattening them slightly to form pancakes. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Serve Warm: Once cooked, transfer the vegetable pancakes to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil. Serve the pancakes warm as a delicious side dish or a light main course.
These crispy vegetable pancakes are a delightful way to enjoy your veggies, offering a perfect balance of flavors and textures. Whether served with a dollop of sour cream or enjoyed as is, they’re sure to be a hit at any meal!
