Savoury Vegetable Pancakes with Shiitake Mushrooms and Snow Peas

Stir fried vegetables in pancake form or Asian latkes as my family called them.

The pancake base is a blend of egg, flour and the water used to rehydrate dried shiitake mushrooms. Added to that is a mix of stir fried vegetables, flavoured with garlic, ginger and hot chili flakes, that has been cooled and drained. The instructions are to julienne the vegetables, which I tried to do by hand.....I should have just shred everything in the food processor as this step was quite time consuming.

The pancakes were quite delicious served with the suggested salty-tangy soy-citrus glaze but did need to be served immediately after cooking while they were still crisp. (They didn’t re-heat well in the oven).
