This variation on pancakes uses the yellow puffs of the dandelion, a good
source of Vitamin A. In a bowl mix together flour, baking powder and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat egg, then mix with milk or water and olive oil.
Combine with dry mixture. Stir in yellow flowers carefully, taking care
not to crush them. Lightly spray a griddle or frying pan with vegetable
oil. Heat until thoroughly warmed. Pour batter onto griddle by spoonfuls
and cook like pancakes. Makes 10 fritters.
