INGREDIENTS

  •     8 small waxy potatoes, scrubbed and quartered

PREPARATION

  1. 1. Place the potatoes in a large ovenproof frying pan, preferably a 12-inch skillet. Add the broth, bring to a boil, and cook for 10 minutes, turning the potatoes often, until almost all the stock has been absorbed and the potatoes are tender
  2. 2. Add the olive oil, broccolini, and onion to the pan and cook for 1 minute, turning the vegetables to coat them in the oil. Cover, reduce the heat ever so slightly, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, just until the broccolini is softened
  3. 3. Meanwhlie, preheat the broiler and beat the eggs with half the cheese and pour it over the vegetables in the pan. Cover and cook over medium-ish heat for 8 to 10 minutes, until the eggs are almost set.
  4. 4. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the frittata then slide it under the broiler just until the top is golden and the eggs are set throughout, 5 to 6 minutes. Let cool slightly before slicing into wedges or squares.

3.Mango Pancakes

This pancake batter is loaded with fruit and it only takes 10 minutes to prepare. Banana, mango, and blueberry make up three of the seven ingredients in this delicious recipe.

Ingredients

  • 120 g plain white flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 75 ml milk
  • 100 g mango compote
  • 25 g butter
  • 1 tbsp butter ((for cooking))

To serve.

  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup blueberries

HOW TO MAKE MANGO PANCAKES

  1. First, start by cutting and dicing your fresh mango. Add the fruit to a blender with the white granulated sugar and blend until smooth.
  2. Next, melt the butter and give it a chance to cool down. You don’t want to add it in too hot since we are working with eggs.
  3. Add the mango mixture, milk, egg, melted butter and vanilla extract to a bowl and mix until well combined.
  4. Next, in a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well with a whisk to remove any lumps.
  5. Add the flour mixture to your mango mixture and whisk together until all the flour mixture is incorporated into your wet ingredients.
  6. Heat a skillet over medium high heat and spray with cooking spray.
  7. Next, add your batter 1/4 cup at a time to the skillet. Make sure the pancakes do not touch and there is enough room in the pan for you to comfortably flip them over.
  8. Cook the mango pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown. You’ll know it’s time to flip once the bubbles on top of the batter have finished popping. You should see tiny holes and that’s when you flip over. They should be very easy to flip.
  9. Finally, serve the pancakes with syrup and fresh fruit on top if desired and enjoy!
