Leftover Grilled Corn Pancakes Recipes

FRESH CORN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, stir together the fine and stone-ground cornmeals, the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and 1 tablespoon salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and Sriracha. Stir in the corn, chives, and jalapeno pepper and mix into the dry ingredients with a rubber spatula until moistened. Don't overmix!
• Heat 1 tablespoon of clarified butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat until it sizzles. Drop 1/4-cup measures of batter into the pan without crowding them. Press each pancake very lightly with a small metal spatula. Cook for 2 minutes, turn, and cook for 1 1/2 minutes, until both sides are browned and the center of the pancake is firm. Place the pancakes on the prepared sheet pans and keep them warm in the oven while you cook the rest of the batter. Continue making the pancakes, adding more clarified butter to the pan, as needed. Sprinkle with salt and serve warm with a sprinkling of minced chives.

LEFTOVER PANCAKE BREAKFAST SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat frying pan over medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray. Crack the egg into the pan and break the yolk. Cook the egg to desired firmness. Warm sliced ham in the pan while assembling sandwich.
• Toast pancakes in toaster and place one pancake on plate. Place egg on top of pancake. Pour 1 tablespoon of maple syrup over egg, place the cheese on top of egg, and a slice of warmed ham on top of the cheese. Top the sandwich with the second pancake and pour another 1 tablespoon of maple syrup over the top of the sandwich.

SWEETCORN PANCAKES

Steps:

• First turn the grill on high. If using fresh corn, remove the husk and slice the kernels from the cob with a large sharp knife, then cook them in a pan of boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and leave to cool while you whisk the eggs, milk and butter together. Whisk in the flour and a large pinch of salt until smooth, then mix in the corn (fresh or canned) and the spring onions.
• Put the tomatoes cut-side up on a large baking tray, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Lay the bacon next to the tomatoes in a single file on the tray. Grill for 8-10 minutes until the tomatoes have softened and the bacon is crispy, turning the rashers over at half time.
• While the bacon's crisping up, heat the sunflower oil in a large frying pan. Add 4 large spoonfuls of the batter and fry for 1-2 minutes on each side until the pancakes are puffed up and golden. Lift out on to a plate lined with kitchen paper and cook the remaining 4 pancakes. Bring to the table with a bottle of chilli sauce.

CORNED BEEF POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the potatoes, green onions, corned beef, and egg. Season with salt and pepper. Form the mixture into golf ball sized balls.
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the potato balls a few at a time into the skillet, flatten with a spatula, and fry 7 minutes on each side, until crisp and golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

LEFTOVER GRILLED CORN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine, in a big bowl, the cornmeal, flour, salt, and pepper.
• Throw half the corn into a food processor, with the chile, cilantro, basil, garlic, lime juice, and egg. (You can reserve and hand-chop some of the herbs if you want prettier, green-flecked pancakes. I'm too lazy.) More-or less puree; it need not be perfectly smooth, but you want to release some of the starch from those kernels.
• Stir the pureed mixture and remaining corn into the dry mixture. Heat about 1/4-inch of oil in a skillet and make big pancakes, turning carefully, once. Serve hot, with - if you like - lime wedges and minced chiles.

CORN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Cut enough kernels from cobs to measure 2 1/2 cups. In a food processor pulse corn until coarsely chopped and slightly wet. Melt butter and cool. In a bowl whisk together butter, eggs, and milk. Coarsely grate mozzarella and in a large bowl stir together with corn, flour, cornmeal, salt, and pepper. Whisk in egg mixture until combined.
• In a 12-inch nonstick skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking. Working in batches, drop 1/8-cup measures of batter into skillet to form pancakes about 2 inches in diameter (do not spread or flatten pancakes) and cook until edges begin to set and undersides are golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes. Flip pancakes and cook until undersides are golden brown and pancakes are cooked through. Add more oil to skillet as necessary between batches. Pancakes may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Reheat pancakes in middle of a 350°F. oven until hot, about 15 minutes.
