A simple pancake recipe using plenty of seasonal zucchini. Enjoy it as a snack or a meal, with its fluffy and melt-in-your-mouth texture. The savory flavor of tuna spreads, and you can enjoy it with your favorite sauces or syrups.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients (Makes 6 pancakes)
- Zucchini 1 (200g)
- Egg 1
- Milk 4 tbsp
- Cake Flour 6 tbsp
- Canned Tuna (drained) 1 can
- Vegetable Oil (for cooking)
Seasonings
- Salt 1/4 tsp
- Salt and Pepper (to taste)
Steps
- Finely shred Zucchini (200g) into 2mm thick slices.
- Massage salt (1/4 tsp) into the shredded zucchini and let it sit for 10 minutes. (Key tip: Zucchini is a watery vegetable, so salting it beforehand draws out moisture, preventing the batter from becoming sticky and ensuring a clean sear.)
- In a bowl, add 1 egg and 4 tbsp milk. Whisk to combine.
- Add 6 tbsp cake flour to the egg and milk mixture. Mix until no lumps remain.
- Once the lumps are gone, add the drained canned tuna and the squeezed zucchini to the bowl.
- Add salt and pepper (to taste) and mix everything well. (Key tip: Adding a whole zucchini generously to the batter prevents it from becoming too dense, resulting in a fluffy and melt-in-your-mouth texture.)
- Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Once the pan is hot, scoop about a heaping tablespoon of the batter and drop it onto the pan, spreading it into a flat circle.
- Cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes until golden brown on one side, then flip.
- Flip, cover with a lid, and steam for 2 minutes. Once both sides are golden brown and cooked through, transfer to a plate.
- Add more vegetable oil to the pan and cook the remaining batter in the same way.
- Serve with your favorite condiments such as ketchup, mayonnaise, okonomiyaki sauce, or syrup.
