I have been sick for days. Runny nose, persistent cough....haven't had much of an appetite either. But, I woke up on Thursday morning craving for something sweet, warm and comforting! So pancakes it has to be!! A quick mix of eggs, flour, milk, salt and baking soda....whip, whip, whip....a little butter on the pan....a ladle of batter.....flip!....rest....stack....lots of honey (good for the throat)....squeeze of lemon (good for the blocked nose)......a generous dollop of Jalna yoghurt (good for the tummy)....lots of blueberries for those much needed vitamins and anti-oxidants (courtesy of Robert and Wah Chin, thanks guys!!).....fork in the left, knife on the right, slice....bite....ahhhhhh........
Recipe adapted from Jamie Oliver,
110g or 4 oz plain flour
1 heaped tablespoon of baking soda
140 ml milk
3 large eggs
Pinch of salt
Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Mix flour, baking soda, milk and egg yolks till you get a smooth batter. Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until you form stiff peaks. Fold in the beaten egg white with the batter. Melt a small knob of butter in a non-stick pan using low heat. Ladle in the batter, wait for the pancake to cook till golden and firm, flip, cook for 1 more miniute, serve with honey and fruits or anything you like with yummy fluffy pancakes! :)
Frank also tried adding ornage zest to the batter and made an orange
(Serves about 8 -10 small pancakes)
