Traditional Pancakes

You decide whether you want to make a sweet option or if you are a more savoury pancake lover you can swap out some of the ingredients for your chosen savoury option.

Ingredients

 125g Plain flour
 1 egg and 1 yolk
 300ml milk
 A little oil
 Tin of pitted black cherries in syrup
 Vanilla ice cream (optional)
 Grated white chocolate to decorate (as much or as little as you like).

Method

1. Sift 125g of plain flour into a bowl and make a well in the middle.
2. In a separate bowl whisk together one egg and one yolk and a little of the milk from the 300ml.
3. Then pour the mixture into the well with a little of the flour.
4. Gradually whisk in half of the remaining milk drawing in gradually the rest of the flour (slowly here) and eventually it will make a smooth batter.
5. Stir In in the remaining milk, cover and leave to stand for 20- 30 minutes.
6. Heat a frying pan with a little brush of oil.
7. Ladle two or three table spoons of batter into the pan so that the batter spreads out evenly over the bottom of the pan.
8. Cook on medium heat for 45 – 60 seconds until small holes appear on the surface of the pancake and the underneath is slightly browned and the edge starts to curl.
9. Loosen the pancake and turn (or toss it over if you are feeling brave).
10. Cook the other side for 30 seconds until golden.
11. Slide the pancake out of the pan before heating the next one.
12. To serve place a tablespoon of black cherries on one side of the pancake along with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream (maybe two) and fold the pancake over.
13. Decorate by drizzling the pancake with some of the cherry syrup and finish off by sprinkling grated white chocolate over the top.
