Instructions
- Peel and wash the carrots, then cut them into chunks. Steam them and mash them into a purée.
- Wash and then chop the spinach shoots. Mash the beetroot into a purée.
In a mixing bowl, mix together the egg, yoghurt, flour, baking powder and Nyons olive oil (PDO) to form a smooth batter. Divide the batter into 3 bowls: mix one portion with the carrot purée, another with the beetroot purée, and the chopped spinach shoots with the remaining portion.
- Heat a frying pan with a little Nyons olive oil (PDO). When it is hot, pour in 1 generous tablespoon of batter to make a pancake. Flip it over when small bubbles start to form (about 2 minutes on each side). Repeat until all the batter has been used up.
