I blew my girlfriend's mind with this recipe. Just beware: if you don't handle massive compliments and lots of praise very well, you probably shouldn't make this recipe. You've been warned.
Prep time: 1 cocktail
1 pound zucchini, grated with cheese grater
1 small bunch scallions, chopped
2 eggs, beaten
2/3 cup milk
6 ounces crumbled feta
1 handful shelled sunflower seeds
1 cup whole wheat flour
Large handful chopped, mixed, fresh herbs—dill, basil, oregano, thyme, and
parsley are all great
1 tsp salt
15 good grinds black pepper
2 fresh cayenne peppers, chopped (optional if you want some
extra kick)
Olive oil
Sour cream (lowfat or full-fat is fine... but don't use fat free)
Combine all ingredients except olive oil and sour cream in
large mixing bowl and stir well.
Heat a cast iron or other frying pan over medium low to medium heat. Add a
nice drizzle of olive oil and ladle a pancake size portion into the pan. Spread
the patter out a bit with the bottom of the ladle until you've got a cake about
1/3-inch in thickness. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until nice
crisped brown but not burned on the bottom, then flip. Remove when second side becomes a nice
golden brown.
Add another drizzle of oil before adding the next pancake.
Serve each pancake with a couple dollops of sour cream.
