Cooking omelettes as mini-pancakes

I hear it often from other parents: "I don't know what to cook anymore! I am running out of ideas!" I have the same feeling, particularly since I have started to cook lunch everyday for my children, (and dinner too!)

Sometimes it helps to just look at your fridge, and see what is left in terms of vegetables. So I found a piece of cabbagge, carrots, and half onion. Which did not look like a promising meal that my children would gladly eat!


Without losing hope, I remembered an Indian recipe of egg balls, and since we recently bought a pan to make the Dutch "poffertjes", I decided to give it a try, and cook them.

So, here it goes the recipe to make vegetables and egg "poffertjes":

Ingredients:

  • Two carrots
  • Half an onion
  • A quarter of a cabbage
  • 4 eggs
  • Salt

Instructions:

  • Shred your vegetables, if you have a food processor, use it, otherwise, use a hand-mixer, a grater, or a knife
  • Mix them in a bowl
  • Add the eggs, and mix them (or you could also mix the eggs in a different bowl)



  • Add the mixture into the pan to bake poffertjes
  • Wait a couple of minutes, and remove the omelettes
  • You are pretty done, if you do not have a "poffertjes" pan (most likely unless you are a Dutch person), try a flat omelette and cut the omelette in circles. Keep the omelette edges for the salad


Now, I just filled the bottom of the food container with the salad made of shredded cabbage, carrots and onion, and on the top I placed the mini omelettes.

Enjoy cooking and eating (unless you are making this for your children's lunch)!
