Frequently asked questions
- How long do Savory Herbed Protein Pancakes with Roasted Tomato Salsa take to make?
- About 35 minutes: 15 minutes of prep and 20 minutes of cooking the pancakes and salsa.
- Are Savory Herbed Protein Pancakes with Roasted Tomato Salsa vegetarian?
- Yes, they are vegetarian. The batter uses rice flour, protein powder, coconut milk and grated carrot and mooli, topped with a roasted tomato and garlic salsa.
- When should I flip savoury pancakes?
- Flip them once bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Keep the heat moderate so the grated vegetables cook through before the outside browns too much.
- Can I make the roasted tomato salsa ahead?
- Yes, roast and mash the tomatoes and garlic ahead and keep the salsa covered in the fridge. Add a squeeze of lemon just before serving to freshen it up.
- What can I use instead of mooli in the pancake batter?
- Swap it for grated courgette, squeezed dry, or more grated carrot. Squeezing out excess moisture keeps the batter from turning thin.
