  • 550 ml still water

  • Then add them to a blender and blend until you get a liquid, soft (like in the picture), pancake batter-like consistency.
  • In a non-stick pan pour 2-3 tablespoons of the batter and spread it gently with a spatula (the batter is thick and will not spread by turning the pan as you would for pancakes).
  • Cook on both sides for 2-3 minutes or until firm enough to handle easily.
  • Repeat until you use up all the batter.
  • Enjoy with fresh vegetables, in wraps, with salads or soups.
  • You can also add spices to the batter or use a splash of oil when frying if you don't have a non-stick pan.
