Pancake Tuesday!

Shrove Tuesday AKA Pancake Tuesday.

We made Jamie Oliver's American Pancakes for lunch in the office today, here's his recipe:

3 eggs

115g flour

1 Tbs baking powder

140ml milk

pinch of salt

First separate the eggs, putting the whites into one bowl and the yolks into another. Add the flour, baking powder and milk to the yolks and mix to a smooth thick batter. Whisk the whites with the salt until they form stiff peaks. Fold into the batter – it is now ready to use.

Heat a good non-stick pan on a medium heat. Pour some of your batter into the pan and fry for a couple of minutes until it starts to look golden and firm. At this point sprinkle your chosen flavouring (see below) on to the uncooked side before loosening with a spatula and flipping the pancake over. Continue frying until both sides are golden.

Eggcellent!

Shame!
