There was pancake mix left over from last night. There was root veg left over from veg box, and a red cabbage. All lovely stuff, but not always an instinctive "turn to" when time is pressing. Tonight, I achieved this inside an hour.... it's frenetic at the beginning, then you can chill, then a bit of faff in the last 10 mins. (Using last night's pancake batter).
Red cabbage
olive oil
white wine
garlic
swede
beetroot
parsnip
carrot
butter/margarine
turkish beans
salt, pepper
1. Chop red cabbage. Tip into big pan. Add crushed garlic, salt and pepper (fennel, caraway, juniper or sweet spices eg ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg could also be added now), Tip in liquid - white wine and/or water, cider, fruit juice .... simmer
2. Start root veg mash - peel a nd chop into 1 cm cubes (ish) whatever root veg is to hand - today - swede, beetroot, carrot and parsnip. Boil for about 15 minutes.
3. Put beans in oven proof dish, and put in the bottom of a medium oven.
4. Make pancakes - keep warm.
5. When root veg are done (you can easily push a sharp knife into them) - drain, put back into the pan - add knobs of butter - slash in all directions with a sharp knife ... it's not mashed, but its all cut up into tiny pieces and the root veg are all mixed together - grind in some black pepper.
6. Serve, scoff ...
Was delish ... I did a taco type thingy with all the veg bits inside the pancake - but do exactly as you fancy.
