Pancakes on Shrove Tuesday

Because pancakes are mandatory on Shrove Tuesday!

 

120g/4oz plain flour

pinch salt

2 eggs

210ml/7fl oz milk

90ml/3fl oz water

1 tbsp oil

1. Put the flour and salt in a large jug and mix.

2. Crack in the eggs and mix with a fork until combined with the flour mixture.

3. Mix the milk and water in another jug.

4. Slowly add the milk/water to the flour mixture beating each time with the fork until the milk is combined. Do not add too much at amny one time as lumps will form. After adding all the milk and water the batter should be smooth and the consistency of double cream.

5. Stir in the oil and refrigerate for 30 minutes before using.

6. Heat up a shallow frying pan and add the batter, swirling the pan as you go until the base is covered with a thin layer of batter. When the underside is lightly browned flip the pancake either by tossing the pan or flipping the pancake using a spatula.

6. Serve either with sugar and freshly squeezed lemon juice (the British way) or nutella and bananas/strawberries (the Parisian way)

That sounds soooo good! My husband is our current King of Breakfast foods around here. I'll have to slip him the recipe and see if he'll make some for me! :)
