🌿 Description
This anti-inflammatory vegetable egg pancake is a nutrient-dense, high-protein, and low-carb meal packed with fresh herbs, colorful vegetables, and wholesome eggs. It’s similar to a rustic frittata but cooked like a thick pancake—crispy outside, soft and fluffy inside. Loaded with ingredients known for their anti-inflammatory benefits (like dill, carrots, and onions), this recipe supports gut health, reduces inflammation, and fits perfectly into clean eating, keto-friendly, and weight-loss diets.
🧾 Ingredients
- 6 large eggs (organic, pasture-raised preferred)
- 2 medium potatoes (grated)
- 1 small carrot (grated)
- 1 small onion (finely chopped)
- ½ cup fresh dill (finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons parsley or cilantro
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder (anti-inflammatory boost)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon sea salt (adjust to taste)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
🍳 Instructions
- Prep the vegetables:
Grate potatoes and carrot. Squeeze out excess moisture from the potatoes using a clean cloth (this helps crispiness). - Mix ingredients:
In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk well. Add grated veggies, onion, garlic, herbs, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined. - Heat the pan:
Heat olive oil in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. - Cook the pancake:
Pour the mixture evenly into the pan and spread it slightly. Cover with a lid and cook for 8–10 minutes on low heat. - Flip carefully:
Once the bottom is golden, flip using a plate or lid and cook the other side for another 5–7 minutes. - Serve:
Remove from heat, slice like a pie, and serve warm.
