How to Make Celery Leaf Pancakes: A Simple Guide

Celery leaf pancakes are a delicious and nutritious way to use leftover celery leaves, turning them into a crispy, flavorful dish. Here’s an easy step-by-step guide.

First, gather your ingredients: 1 cup chopped celery leaves, ½ cup all-purpose flour, 1 egg, ½ cup water, 1 tbsp chopped green onions, 1 tsp salt, and a pinch of pepper. For extra flavor, add 1 tsp sesame oil or minced garlic.

Mix the flour, egg, water, salt, and pepper in a bowl to form a smooth batter. Stir in the celery leaves, green onions, and optional garlic until well combined. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan, spreading it into a thin circle. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges set and turn golden, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until both sides are crispy.

Serve hot with soy sauce, yogurt, or your favorite dip. These pancakes are perfect as a snack, side dish, or light meal. Enjoy the fresh, herbaceous taste of celery leaves in a whole new way!
