Zucchini Pancakes
Recently, while insposcrolling on social media, I came across one of those stop in your tracks, this looks delicious, I have to make this moments!
I’ve always had a great love for zucchini, and when I saw how Catherine Perez from Catherine Perez brought this dish together, I was eager to roll up my sleeves and get grating! I love that she uses silken tofu instead of eggs. Perfect for our vegan community!
It’s also a delicious way to incorporate Remedy Superb Seasoning Mix into everyday cooking. It adds a lovely savoury flavour to these crispy little pancakes without needing a long list of ingredients.
Ingredients: makes 2 large pancakes
2 medium zucchinis
450g silken tofu
1 teaspoon salt, plus extra for zucchini
1¼ cups wholemeal plain flour
¼ cup Remedy Superb Seasoning Mix
6 tablespoons cornflour
¼ cup sesame seeds, plus extra for sprinkling
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 small Spanish onion, thinly sliced
4 shallots, thinly sliced
1 inch piece of ginger, grated
1–3 tablespoons water
Ghee, EVOO or avocado oil, for cooking
Method
Grate the zucchini and sprinkle with a generous amount of salt. Allow to sit for 5–10 minutes, then wrap in a clean, dry tea towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This helps create a crispier pancake.
Blitz the silken tofu and salt until silky smooth… pardon the pun!
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, Remedy Superb Seasoning Mix, cornflour and baking powder. Pour in the tofu mixture and combine. The batter will be extremely thick, so gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, until thick but spreadable.
Add the zucchini, Spanish onion, shallots, ginger and sesame seeds. Mix well.
Heat a 22cm (8.5-inch) frying pan over medium-low heat and add a generous coating of ghee, EVOO or avocado oil. Add half the batter and spread evenly over the base of the pan.
Sprinkle with extra sesame seeds and drizzle with a little more oil. Cook for approximately 7 minutes, or until golden and crisp underneath. Carefully flip and cook for a further 5–7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Cut into bite-sized pieces and serve with your favourite sauce.
