Pancake

Making the batter for the pancake is really simple. It's one of the easiest and fastest breakfast you can prepare(although sandwiches are definitely faster).

To make the batter for pancakes:

Batter for 8-10 pancakes:

Ingredients:

125g plain flour
1 large egg
300ml milk
Vegetable oil/Olive oil

Preparation method:

1. Put the flour into the bowl and make a well in the center. Break the egg and add a little milk into it. Then, start whisking the egg with the milk. The flour will mix with the liquid and thicken it.

2. Continue whisking and as the batter thickens, gradually pour in more milk. Once all the ingredients combine, the batter should be smooth and the thickness of pouring cream.

3. Allow the batter to stand for about 30minutes before use to give the starch time to swell and less floury. If the batter thickens, add a little milk. Don't leave the batter for more than 6 hours.

4. Heat a thin layer of oil in a small frying pan until smoking hot. Then, pour a little of the batter into the pan. Immediately tilt and twist the pan so that the batter spreads to a very thin layer.

5. Cook the pancake for about 1 minute until the underside is golden. Test by lifting the edge with a spatula.

6. Turn the pancake with the spatula and cook until the underside is golden too. Place the product onto a plate and repeat steps 4 to 6 for the remaining batter.

Pancakes can be kept overnight. Wrap it in foil or greaseproof paper and freeze it. Thaw overnight or several hours in a refrigerator.

Pancakes can be served with countless ways. Best way in the morning, for me, would be maple syrup, some cut fruits like strawberries and bananas would be a fulfilling breakfast before starting off the day.
