Put Spinach in boiling water for several seconds. Then take them out and chopped into granules.

Put spinach in a large bowl. Beat in a large egg, half a small bowl of flour, some water, 1 tsp baking soda, some salt and black pepper powder. Mix them well.

Heat a little oil in the pan. Put a spoonful of batter in the pan. When the down side’s edge becomes a little golden, flip it over. And fry the other side for a while.
