Cabbage Pie & Vege Pancakes

Cabbage pie

This is veges rather than cabbage, same principle
There is also this, called a cabbage omelette, I'll try this as I have a cabbage that needs using up (1/4/2020-in lockdown):

 I did this one, it seemed to have a few more ingredients to make it more flavoursome.
Ingredients

  • chopped cabbage
  • grated carrot
  • chopped up pieces of home cured bacon. There could have been more of this to add flavour
  • 1/2 onion chopped
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • Salt
  • Pepper
Oil for pan and fry up with lid on so cabbage steams and cooks.



Result:
Ok, it could have a bit more flavour but a good taste overall, a bit like a cabbage tortilla. Good use of veges.
It was not quite holding together, so could use a bit more flour or eggs.
The 2nd one I craked another egg over it to try and make it thicker, but the flip side is not as dense as the first side to cook as the egg drains to the bottom.
 Maybe flip over before middle cooked and pour a bit more egg in.
The bacon added a punch to it, so adding a meat or something stronger adds flavour to rather bland veges.
I wonder if you could add cheese to the sauce? What about some chilli flakes? It needs a bit of a kick, or as an accompniment to some meat.
I'll keep the 2nd one back for the fried rice tonight.



Cabbage pancakes: Blitz the cabbage.
