Corn Pancakes
Ingredients
- 200 g corn (1/2 can)
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons flour (wheat or gluten-free corn flour version)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream or milk
- salt, 1/3 teaspoon turmeric, 1/3 teaspoon sweet paprika powder
- a few basil leaves
- oil (e.g. coconut or other)
Preparation
- Drain the corn and blend it with the addition of turmeric and paprika powder in a food processor or blender (into a puree with pieces of corn of smaller and larger sizes).
- Transfer to a bowl, add chopped basil, milk, and egg and mix. Add flour with baking powder, season with salt and mix gently into a smooth mass.
- Heat the pan, grease it with oil, place about 1 and 1/2 tablespoons of the mixture for each pancake and gently spread to about 7 mm thickness. Fry without flipping for about 1.5 minutes until golden on the bottom and risen. Then flip to the other side and repeat frying.
- Remove from the pan and repeat with the next portion of pancakes. On a hotter pan, the pancakes may fry faster.
