    Instructions

    (Stops screen from sleeping)

    1 Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, gradually adding flour and stock. Mix until smooth and season with pepper. Add the coleslaw mix, beans, capsicum and fresh herbs into the batter, and mix well.

    2 Heat a large non-stick frypan, (one with a lid) over medium heat. When frypan is hot, add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Using a half-cup measure, scoop mixture into pan, flattening each pancake slightly and also leaving room in-between to flip the pancakes with a spatula.

    3 Place the lid on the pan and cook over a low heat for about 3–4 minutes, or until golden. Carefully flip pancake over and cook the other side for a further 3–4 more minutes with the lid on. Repeat until all batter is used up (makes 16 pancakes).

    4 Eat the pancakes warm, with a drizzle of sweet chilli sauce or mayo, and a side of salad leaves.

      Hi. I’d like to print this recipe but i don’t see a print option. Only a Facebook and Pinterest option. I’ve asked this question before and have been told that the print option is “at the bottom of the recipe underneath the tips section”.
      You help is appreciated.
