Ingredients to make Spinach Pancakes with Cheese:

  • 200 grams of grated Manchego cheese or any other that melts easily
  • 500 grams of chopped spinach
  • ½ piece of chopped onion
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 pinch of garlic powder
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 pinch of pepper
  • 3 tablespoons of flour
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 liter of water

How to make Cheesy Spinach Pancakes:

To start making these spinach and cheese pancakes, bring the water to a boil in a pot. When it is boiling, add the previously chopped spinach, cover and let it cook over low heat for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and, with the help of a strainer, drain all the water and let cool.

Trick: It is very important that as much water as possible is drained so that, when making the pancakes, they do not break.

While the spinach is cooling, in a pan fry the onion with a little oil until it looks golden brown or transparent. Once ready, remove from the pan and reserve.

In a deep bowl, add the spinach, onion and grated cheese. Gradually add the flour in the form of rain and mix little by little until the ingredients are well integrated.

In another bowl, beat the eggs with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well and then add it to the container where you have the spinach. Integrate all the ingredients well until you achieve a doughy and manageable consistency.

Heat the oil in a frying pan, form the pancakes with the mixture and fry them. Flip the pancake regularly until you see that it is already golden and firm.

Tip: As these pancakes are not battered, you will not need a lot of oil, if you like you can use some type of spray oil or a little butter.

And your spinach and cheese pancakes are ready! You noticed that they are very simple to prepare, right? Now it only remains to accompany them with a salad or rice of your choice.
