One serving has 338 kcal and 8 g protein, and at least a fifth of a woman's daily need of manganese (46%), selenium (39%), thiamin (34%), riboflavin (28%), iron (26%) and folate (25%). Ready in 30 minutes.
- Preparation: 15 min
- Cooking: 15 min
- Makes: 1 serving (154 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian, Dairy-free
- Contains: egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 45 g Flour, all-purpose
- 20 g Eggs, whole, raw
- 60 g Coconut milk, canned
- 0.3 g Turmeric
- 25 g Water
- 3 g Vegetable oil
- 0.5 g Salt
Method
- Whisk the flour, egg, coconut milk, turmeric, water and salt into a thin, lump-free batter, then strain it through a sieve.
- Let the batter rest for 15 minutes so the flour fully hydrates and the pancakes cook up tender.
- Lightly grease a flat non-stick pan with a little of the oil and set it over medium heat.
- Drizzle the batter from a spouted cup (or a piping bag with several small holes) in a fine, overlapping crisscross net over the pan.
- Cook for about 1 minute, without flipping, until the lacy pancake is set and no longer wet on top.
- Slide it out and fold into a triangle or roll into a log; repeat with the rest of the batter to make about 3 pancakes.
- This makes 1 serving of 3 lace pancakes; multiply everything by the number of servings you need. Serve warm alongside a curry.
