Veggie Pancake

by Connie Cheung

This is one of my favorites because it’s so good, but also allows me to use all the leftover vegetables in the fridge. I love how I can be flexible and versatile with this dish. You can add whatever vegetables you have on hand as long as you chop them up consistently so all the veggies are the same size. Dipped in the sauce, this savory pancake will win your taste buds over.
