How to make Pancakes!
You’ll need:
- 110g/4oz plain flour, sifted
- pinch of salt
- 2 eggs
- 200ml/7fl oz milk mixed with 75ml/3fl oz water
- 50g/2oz butter melted
- caster sugar
- lemon juice
- lemon wedges
- Your favourite ice cream
- Chocolate sauce (yum yum!)
- To serve:
keep it simple with lemon & sugar – or go large with ice cream and chocolate sauce! - 1. Put the flour and salt into a large mixing bowl and make a well in the centre of the flour and break the eggs into it.
2. Whisk the mixture.
3. Gradually add milk and water a little at a time, and whisk untill the batter is smooth (don’t worry about any lumps as they will eventually disappear as you whisk).
4. Spoon 2 tbsp of the melted butter into the batter and whisk it in.
5. Grease the pan with a little of the remaining butter.
6. Get the pan really hot, then turn the heat down to medium and pour in about 2-3 tablespoons of batter.
7. Cook for 30 secs or so before lifting the edge with a palette knife to see if it’s tinged gold as it should be.
8. Now for the fun bit! Flip the pancake!
9. Cook the other side, then serve onto a warm plate.
10. Adorn your pancake as lavishly as you like, and enjoy!
11. Repeat until all the mixture is gone! - Alternatively, of course, you could just come to the pub! We’ve got Pancakes as our Hot pudding of the Day!
Happy Pancake Day!
