I found this recipe in an American Indian cookbook. I can't wait to try it. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups shelled sunflower seeds (fresh or dried) |
3 cups water |
6 tablespoons fine cornmeal |
3 tablespoons maple syrup |
1/2 cup oil |
Directions:
1. Simmer the seeds in the water, covered, for 1 hour. Drain & grind the seeds when done.
2. Mix the syrup & cornmeal, 1 tablespoon at a time, into the ground seeds, making a stiff dough. Shape into 3 inch flat cakes, about 15 cakes.
3. Fry the cakes in hot oil on both sides. Drain on paper towels & serve hot.
