Ricotta and spinach pancake

Drescription

Give the classic spinach and ricotta a twist by putting it in a savoury pancake.

Ingredients

1 large free-range egg
50g/1¾oz plain flour
pinch salt
100ml/3½fl oz milk
knob of butter, for frying
150g/5½oz ricotta
large handful baby spinach, finely shredded
good grating fresh nutmeg
½ lemon, juice only
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

To make the pancake batter, place the eggs, flour and salt into a bowl and beat together with a whisk. Pour in the milk and whisk again until smooth.
Melt the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat. Pour in a ladle of pancake batter and cook for 1–2 minutes. Flip over and cook for another 1–2 minutes. Repeat to cook the second pancake.
Scatter half the ricotta over each pancake. Scatter over the baby spinach and then grate over the nutmeg.
Season well and squeeze over the lemon juice. Roll up to serve.

Lunch

Anti Inflammatory Beet & Avocado Wrap

Packed with fiber and monounsaturated fats, avocados are one of the best foods to eat to fight inflammation. Combined with raw beets, which contain their own inflammation-fighting phytochemicals, you'll get a lunch that packs a healthy punch. The tahini-lemon mixture adds brightness and a nutty flavor to the wrap. To julienne beets, cut them into thin rounds, then slice the rounds into matchsticks. Or to save time, simply grate the beets on the largest holes of a box grater.
