Well the spinach was drying out and dying pretty rapidly in this heatwave we've got here. And I had an aubergine in my fridge. So I tried Rachel's suggestion. I thought I'd make a little extra and just heat it for a minute in the micro for lunch. They turned out so deliciious I ended up eating the lunch for breakfast ! Well it was nearly 11.30am so it could be considered a combination of breakfast and lunch.
Protein Whey (optional)
Soya flour (1-3 Tbsp)
Wheat Germ (1Tbsp)
H&S: Chilli/Garam Masala/Turmeric/garlic/salt/cilantro
˝ tsp baking powder
Lcarb Vegetables eg ˝Aubergine, spinnach, 2 spring onions - chives
1 egg (optional – good binding agent if U want to reduce on soya flour)
Mix H&S, flour, baking powder (sift together if you want – I just used a fork). Add the vegetable(s) chopped quite small. Fairly thick batter. Do not add more water to mix unless absolutely necessary.
Heat a little oil (2-4tbsp). Pat the mixture into flat round shapes and shallow fry. The vegetables release a fair amount of water as they cook so do it on a low heat and do not be in a hurry to turn over.
Absolutely delicious . And you can get a good variety using different L/Carb vegetables.
