DO NOT waste Celery Leaves. I have shared some recipes to use up Celery Leaves on this website, but this is my favourite. The flavour of the pancake is not too overwhelming and anyone can enjoy it. My savoury pancakes, including this one, have rubbery Mochi-like texture. To achieve it, you must not add extra Batter. The amount of the batter should be just enough to bind the ingredients together.
