Basic Pancake Recipe

So, if you had not realised it is PANCAKE DAY on Tuesday 4th March 2014.

Ingredients:

110g plain flour

200ml milk combined with 75ml water

2 eggs

oil or butter to fry

Method:

1. Place flour into a bowl and break eggs into it.
2. Whisk the eggs and flour and gradually add the liquid mix until it is all mixed in and the mixture is smooth.
3. Heat the oil or butter in a frying pan until hot, and turn the heat down to medium.
4. Add a ladle of the pancake mixture to the pan. Swirl the pancake mixture around in the pan to get a good covering of the whole base of the pan.
5. Place the pan back onto the heat and after 30 seconds to a minute the pancake should be ready to turn, either use a fish slice to gently turn the pancake over or if you're feeling confident you can toss it in the pan.
6. Cook for only a few seconds and slide out of the pan onto a plate.

Serve warm pancakes with syrup, sugar, honey, lemon, treacle, jam, nutella, ice cream, chopped fruit or anything else delicious!
