A recipe for easy-to-make spinach pancakes using plenty of seasonal spinach. Tuna and dashi granules add umami, making this dish enjoyable even for those who dislike vegetables. It's perfect as a snack or side dish, and is a healthy baked dish that's also budget-friendly.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients (2 servings)
- Spinach 1 bunch (200g)
- Canned Tuna (drained) 1 can
- Cake Flour 3 tbsp
- Eggs 2
- Vegetable Oil (for cooking)
- Butter (for finishing)
Seasonings
- Dashi Granules 1 tsp
- Okonomiyaki Sauce (to taste)
- Mayonnaise (to taste)
- Ketchup (to taste)
Steps
- Cut off the root ends of 1 bunch (200g) of spinach and chop into 2cm pieces.
- Place the chopped spinach in a heatproof container with the stems facing down and cover with plastic wrap.
- Microwave on 600W for 3 minutes.
- After microwaving, rinse the spinach in cold water for about 30 seconds to cool and remove excess bitterness.
- Once cooled, squeeze out the water from the spinach by hand.
- Loosen the squeezed spinach and place it in a bowl.
- Add 3 tbsp of cake flour to the bowl, shake the bowl, and coat the spinach evenly with flour.
- Add 1 tsp of dashi granules, 1 can of drained canned tuna, and 2 eggs. Mix until everything is combined, whisking the eggs thoroughly. (Key Tip!) Mix well until the egg coats everything to ensure it binds together when cooked.
- Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Spread the mixed ingredients evenly in the heated frying pan and cook over medium heat until the bottom is browned.
- Once the bottom is browned and set, carefully slide the pancake onto a plate.
- Place the frying pan upside down over the pancake, then flip it back into the pan. Shape it into a round form and cook the other side until browned.
- It's done when both sides are golden brown.
- Cut into easy-to-eat pieces and arrange on a plate.
- Serve with your favorite sauce such as mayonnaise, okonomiyaki sauce, or ketchup. (Key Tip!) For a crispier finish when eating as is, cook the surface with butter until crispy.
