Ingredients:

  • 3 cups zucchini, grated
  • 1 teaspoon of sea salt
  • 1 corn cob, remove corn from cob
  • 1 large handful of kale, finely chopped
  • 400 grams of organic lentils
  • ½ a red onion, finely diced
  • 1 handful of fresh coriander, roughly chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon of turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon of chili flakes
  • 30 grams of coconut flour
  • 2 tablespoons of flaxseed flour
  • 6 tablespoons of boiling water
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Coconut oil

 

Method:

 

  1. Preheat oven to 180˚C

  3. Remove all the excess water from the zucchini and place in a large bowl.
  4. Add the corn, kale, lentils, onion, coriander, garlic, turmeric and chili flakes and combine.
