How to make Green Alien Pancakes on Sustainable Family Home

Tasman shares his special Green Alien Pancake recipe. The secret ingredient is greens from the garden!

Ingredients:
3 free range eggs
2 cups soy milk
1 cup whole wheat, self-raising flour
4 cups of leafy greens from the garden (we used a combination of warrigal greens, silver beet and English spinach
1 tablespoon of brown sugar
Extra virgin olive oil, for cooking the pancakes.

Method:
Place all ingredients, except the olive oil, in a large mixing bowl.
Blend ingredients using a stick blender until smooth and green.
Prepare a heavy based saucepan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, on medium-high heat. Ladle about half a cup of mixture into the pan at a time. Cook until bubbles form, then flip and cook for equal time on the second side. Repeat, until the mixture is finished.
Eat the alien pancakes as they emerge from the pan, or serve them with fresh ricotta cheese, diced tomatoes and grated parmesan cheese.

When schools closed across Canberra, two families decided to learn how they can live more sustainably at home. Join Mia Swainson’s family and Julie Boulton’s family as they bring you a 15 – 20 minute webcast at 3.30pm, each Monday-Thursday. Everyone is welcome to join in and be inspired to live sustainably in this time of change. In this second series, the families will continue to explore different activities centred around sustainability including cooking, gardening and sustainable craft.
