Instructions

  • 1

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, coconut milk, water, and a pinch of salt until smooth. The batter should be free of lumps and have a thick but pourable consistency.

  • 2
    Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and brush with oil.

    Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Brush the pan with a small amount of oil to prevent the pancakes from sticking. Once the pan is hot, pour a small amount of batter into the pan and tilt to evenly coat the bottom.

  • 3
    Add the filling and fold the pancake.

    Once the bottom of the pancake is cooked, add a spoonful of the grated carrot, zucchini, chopped scallions, and cilantro in the center of the pancake. Use a spatula to carefully fold the pancake in half over the filling.

    Cook the other side and serve.

    Continue to cook for another minute or until the other side is lightly browned. Remove the pancake from the pan and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

    This vegetable kanom krok recipe is very interesting, I like the combination of coconut and vegetables. As someone who enjoys sushi and ramen, I appreciate the asian influence in this dish. The fact that it's spicy is also a plus for me, I love a good kick! However, I had to be careful with the coconut milk, lactose intolerance can be a real pain. Overall, I think this recipe is worth trying, especially if you're looking for a new snack or appetizer idea. One thing I might suggest is adding some chili flakes or sriracha to give it an extra spicy boost. Also, I had some trouble with the batter consistency, maybe it's just me, but I had to adjust it a bit to get it right.

    Assalamu alaikum, I appreciate the effort in creating this recipe for Vegetable Kanom Krok, a traditional Thai dish. As a respected community leader and observer of halal dietary laws, I was pleased to see that the ingredients listed do not contain any haram substances. The dish itself appears to be a unique fusion of flavors and textures, with the coconut pancakes providing a nice base for the vegetable filling. I appreciate the use of grated carrot, zucchini, and herbs like scallions and cilantro, which add freshness and flavor to the dish. However, I would have preferred to see some suggestions for halal dipping sauces, as this would be an important consideration for me and others who follow similar dietary restrictions. Overall, I think this recipe has potential and would be worth trying, especially for those looking to explore international cuisine while adhering to halal guidelines.

    I must admit that the Vegetable Kanom Krok recipe, while intriguing, failed to resonate with my gastronomical inclinations. As an aficionado of traditional Polish cuisine, I tend to favor dishes that feature meat and potatoes as primary constituents. The coconut pancakes, replete with vegetables, did not align with my predilections for heartier, more substantial fare. Furthermore, the presence of gluten in the all-purpose flour used in the recipe was a drawback, given my mild intolerance to this protein. In terms of preparation, I appreciated the straightforward instructions, which were reminiscent of the algorithmic approaches I employ in my programming endeavors. Nevertheless, the dish's flavor profile and texture were not sufficiently complex to satiate my analytical palate. Perhaps, with some modifications to incorporate meat and gluten-free alternatives, this recipe could be elevated to a more satisfactory level.

    I was excited to try these Vegetable Kanom Krok, and they didn't disappoint! As a vegetarian who loves exploring international flavors, I appreciated the creative twist on traditional Thai cuisine. The combination of coconut milk, grated veggies, and fresh herbs was delightful. I was a bit worried about the oil content, but the recipe seems to use a minimal amount, which I appreciated. The only thing that kept it from being 5 stars is that I wished for a bit more pronounced flavor - maybe a squeeze of fresh lime juice or a sprinkle of spices to give it that extra oomph. Still, I'd definitely make these again and experiment with different fillings. They'd be perfect for a gathering with friends or as a snack to serve with a side of tahini sauce - yum!

    Waheguru ji! I appreciate this Vegetable Kanom Krok recipe. As a vegetarian and a follower of a strict Sikh diet, I was happy to see that it's free from animal products. The use of coconut milk and vegetables like carrots, zucchini, scallions, and cilantro was a nice touch. However, I had to make some adjustments to make it gluten-free, which was a bit of a challenge. I replaced the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free alternative and it worked out well. The pancakes turned out delicious and were a nice change of pace from traditional Punjabi dishes like sarson ka saag and makki di roti. I would have liked it if the recipe had a milder flavor profile, as I'm not a fan of overly spicy food. Overall, I would definitely make this again and serve it with a side of mint chutney or raita.

    OMG, these coconut pancakes are like a flavorful party in my mouth! As a veggie lover, I'm always on the lookout for new recipes to try, and this Thai-inspired kanom krok recipe is a total winner! The combination of grated carrot, zucchini, scallions, and cilantro is absolute perfection. I did have to make a few tweaks to accommodate my gluten intolerance, but substituting all-purpose flour with a gluten-free alternative worked like a charm. The coconut milk adds a richness and creaminess that complements the veggies beautifully. My only gripe is that I had to get a bit creative with the dipping sauce, as I'm trying to avoid high sugar content - but that's a minor quibble. Overall, I'd highly recommend this recipe to anyone looking to spice up their snack game! Just be prepared for a bit of a messy cooking process - I'm a little scattered, and my kitchen ended up looking like a war zone

    I'm stoked about these veggie kanom krok! As a pescatarian with a gluten intolerance, I was psyched to find a recipe that's both delicious and accommodating. The coconut pancakes were a great twist on traditional snacks, and I loved the addition of veggies like carrots, zucchini, and scallions. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the end result was pretty on point. My only gripe is that I'd love to see some seafood or vegan protein options added to the filling - maybe some tofu or shrimp? But overall, I'd def make these again and experiment with different flavors. The combination of coconut milk and fresh herbs was straight fire, and I'd highly recommend giving this recipe a shot if you're lookin' for a tasty, gluten-free snack!

    Eu não sou um grande fã de pancakes, mas esses Vegetable Kanom Krok me interessaram! Infelizmente, não tem carne, o que é um problema para mim, mas eu acho que é uma boa opção para vegetarianos. A ideia de colocar legumes dentro de um panqueca de coco é muito legal! Talvez eu tente adaptar a receita para incluir algum tipo de carne, como frango ou linguiça. No geral, é uma receita interessante, mas não é exatamente o meu estilo. Vale a pena para quem gosta de comida tailandesa e é vegetariano!

    A delightful and refreshing take on traditional pancakes, these Vegetable Kanom Krok (Coconut Pancakes) are a great addition to any snack or appetizer platter. The use of coconut milk and various vegetables such as carrot, zucchini, scallions, and cilantro adds a nice depth of flavor and texture. While I typically prefer spicier dishes, I found the flavor profile to be well-balanced and enjoyable. As someone with a mild egg allergy, I appreciate that this recipe doesn't include eggs. The preparation and cooking times are reasonable, and the steps are clearly outlined. Overall, a great recipe for those looking to try something new and exciting! One suggestion I might make is to consider adding some heat, perhaps in the form of red pepper flakes or sriracha, to give it a bit more kick. Additionally, it would be interesting to experiment with different types of fillings, such as adding some sautéed spinach or mushrooms to the mix.

    These Vegetable Kanom Krok coconut pancakes have truly nourished my soul! As someone who deeply appreciates plant-based cuisine, I was thrilled to discover this Thai-inspired recipe that effortlessly combines flavors and textures. The harmonious balance of coconut milk, crunchy vegetables, and fragrant herbs is nothing short of delightful. What I adore most about this recipe is its emphasis on simplicity and sustainability - using locally-sourced ingredients and minimizing waste is a beautiful way to honor the earth and our connection to it. The process of preparing these pancakes felt almost meditative, allowing me to cultivate mindfulness and intention in the kitchen. If you're a fellow seeker of holistic eats and sustainable living, you owe it to yourself to try these Kanom Krok - they're a true celebration of compassion and wellness!

    Blimey, I gotta say, these coconut pancakes are a right ol' treat... for veggies, that is. As a meat-lover, I was a bit miffed to find there wasn't a bit of corned beef or Irish sausage in sight. But, I suppose it's not all about the meat, right? The veggie filling was a nice mix of carrot, zucchini, scallions, and cilantro, but it just didn't hit the spot for me. And, let's be real, no dairy? That's like a shepherd's pie without the mashed potatoes - what's the point? I mean, coconut milk is a decent substitute, but it's just not the same. That being said, I do appreciate a good pancake, and these were fluffy and whatnot. If you're a veggie lover or just looking for a dairy-free snack, you might enjoy these. Just don't expect me to give up me shepherd's pie for 'em anytime soon.
