Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup White Poppy Seeds
  • 1 Egg Large | Brown | Organic
  • Himalayan Sea Salt as per taste
  • ½ Onion finely chopped
  • ¼ cup Spinach finely chopped
  • ½ tsp Chili powder add more if you like
  • ¼ tsp Dry thyme leaves
  • 1 tsp Ghee / Coconut Oil / Palm Shortening / Avocado Oil

Instructions
 

  • Add 1/2 cup poppy seeds to a clean bowl and add in just enough water to submerge all the poppy seeds (water should be @ room temperature and not cold) - Set this aside for 30 minutes
  • After 30 mins the poppy seeds will have absorbed all the water and would have puffed up
  • Add the puffed up seeds to a a blender pot and blend them to a paste
  • Transfer this paste to a bowl & crack in an egg - Mix well
  • Now add in the salt, onions, spinach, chilli powder and thyme to the paste - Mix well until combined
  • Next, heat a skillet add in a teaspoon of ghee when adequately hot
  • Drop in a dollop of the paste with the help of a sppon so that it forms small circles - much like pancakes / fritters
  • Cover the skillet and cook the fritters from one side for about a minute or so until they are set nicely
  • Flip and then cover the skillet to cook from the other side
  • Plate them out and enjoy with favourite Paleo compliant dip
