Looking for a quick and easy pancake recipe? This one works every time!
Makes: about 6-8 x 20-23cm (8-9in) pancakes, or about 10 14 x 15-18cm (6-7in) pancakes
60g (2oz) plain flour
Pinch of salt
1 medium egg
175ml (6fl oz) milk
Oil, for frying
1. Tip the flour into a bowl and stir in the salt. Lightly beat together the egg and milk. Pour over the flour mixture, a little at a time, whisking it well, to give a smooth batter.
2. Heat a frying pan and very lightly grease the base of it with a piece of kitchen paper dipped in oil. Pour a thin layer of batter over the base of the pan. Cook it until the edges start to curl back. Either toss the pancake, or use a palette knife to loosen it around the edges and then use the palette knife to help flip it over.
3. Cook the pancake briefly on this side, then slide it out on to a plate. Place a sheet of kitchen paper on top. Cook the rest of the mixture in the same way.
Keep them warm if serving hot.
