ENGLISH PANCAKE BATTER

Steps:

• Melt a knob of butter in a pan, then leave to cool down.
• Meanwhile, place the flour in a bowl.
• Break the eggs into the bowl and pour in the milk.
• Mix until it turns into a smooth batter.
• Stir in the now cooled melted butter and leave to stand for about half an hour.
• This lets the starch expand and makes the finished pancake lighter.
• When you're ready to cook the pancakes, melt a little more of the butter along with a bit of oil in a frying pan.
• A non-stick pan is the best.
• When it is quite hot pour 1/4 cup batter into the pan.
• Swirl it until it covers the pan and you have a thin, even layer that should set almost immediately.
• After about a minute it should be ready to flip.
• Cook for 30 seconds on the other side and then tip onto a plate.
• Repeat until you have used up all the batter.

EASY PANCAKES

Steps:

• Put 100g plain flour, 2 large eggs, 300ml milk, 1 tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil and a pinch of salt into a bowl or large jug, then whisk to a smooth batter.
• Set aside for 30 mins to rest if you have time, or start cooking straight away.
• Set a medium frying pan or crêpe pan over a medium heat and carefully wipe it with some oiled kitchen paper.
• When hot, cook your pancakes for 1 min on each side until golden, keeping them warm in a low oven as you go.
• Serve with lemon wedges and caster sugar, or your favourite filling. Once cold, you can layer the pancakes between baking parchment, then wrap in cling film and freeze for up to 2 months.

ENGLISH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Place flour and beaten eggs into a large mixing bowl, and whisk until they start to mix. Then gradually add the liquid mixture, continually mixing until the batter is smooth.
• Heat a teaspoon of oil in a frying pan, then add half a cup of the batter into the pan, and quickly spread evenly so the base of the pan is completely covered. Cook until slightly browned on each side, then serve.

ENGLISH PANCAKES

Steps:

• 1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the egg and egg yolks, followed by the milk and 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil. Continue whisking until there are no lumps. In a separate small saucepan, melt the butter until it is golden brown, and whisk it into the pancake mix. Leave the batter to rest for about 15 minutes.
• Heat an 8-inch frying pan until hot, and add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, tilting the pan to spread the oil across the bottom. When the oil starts to smoke, pour the excess into a small bowl for later use. Return the pan to the heat. You now have a sheer coating of oil remaining on the pan.
• Pour 2 tablespoons of the batter into the pancake pan, tilting the pan to coat the bottom evenly. Cook until the underside of the pancake is golden brown, and then, using a spatula turn it over and cook the other side. Turn the pancake out onto an upturned dinner plate. Repeat until there is no more batter, using a bit of the reserved oil if the pan appears to be dry, or if the pancakes begin to stick. Continue to stack pancakes on top of each other on your dinner plate.
• When finished, served the pancakes straightaway with the sugar for sprinkling and the lemon and orange wedges on the side for squeezing on the pancakes.
• 5. If you want to make the pancakes in advance, lightly butter an ovenproof tray, and sprinkle each pancake with sugar after you finish cooking it. Fold the pancakes in half and then half again, arranging them all neatly on the tray. Cover the tray with foil and bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes. Serve with the lemon and orange wedges.
