This Regional Recipe Will Surprise You!

This Regional Recipe Will Surprise You! Today, I’m sharing a simple yet special recipe from the Black Sea region of Turkey, specifically Trabzon. It’s made with just a few basic ingredients—pumpkin, onion, corn flour, and eggs—but it’s packed with flavor. Think of it like fritters, but instead of shaping them individually, we press everything into a pan and cook it to golden perfection. It’s such an easy and versatile dish—great as a side or even a quick snack when you’re craving something savory. I can’t wait for you to try it and experience a little taste of Trabzon in your own kitchen!

Ingredients For Pumpkin Corn Fritters / Pancake (Balkabağı Tavası)
About 250gr. peeled pumpkin slices, coarsely grated
1/2 to 2/3 cup corn flour (I used 4-5 heaped tbsp, check the consistency while adding)
2 eggs
1 medium size onion
2 tbsp flour
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp or more salt to taste
black pepper to taste

By corn flour do you mean what is called cornmeal in the US? Here in Europe cornflour is what is called corn starch in the US.

You are always so inventive in how you share savoury and sweet options for one ingredient. Pumpkin is delicious and I enjoy it more in savoury dishes. This recipe sounds delightful. The flavour of the onion would be wonderful with the sweetness of pumpkin. Thank you for all of your hard work to share this lovely recipe 🧡
