Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Place 125g (4oz) flour in a mixing bowl and make a well in the centre. Drop in 2 eggs and add a little milk from a total of 300ml (½pt). Use a balloon whisk or wooden spoon, beat the egg well gradually incorporating the flour.

  2. Beat until smooth then gradually beat in the remaining milk.

  3. Heat a little oil in a 20cm/8in heavy-based frying pan. (I use a silicone pastry brush to brush a thin layer of oil over the pan) Spoon about 3 tbsp of the pancake mixture into the pan and tilt the pan quickly so that the batter to coats the base of the pan.
