Pancakes are one of my favourite sweet treats. Big part why is it so lays definitely in the fact that you can prepare them in no time.
Pancakes I prepapre are, obviously, European, so not quite like American pancakes :) But I really love them this way. You can eat them with ice-cream, marmelade, nutella cream, honey, etc. Also, if you prefer salty variations, it is not a problem: just put mayonnaise and some ham, and voila!
Here is my basic recipe for pancakes:
1 egg
1 cup of milk
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups flour
Butter or oil for frying
Mix the above named ingredients until smooth, and then add as much water as you need to get liquid mixture. This way pancakes will be thin and delicate, as they will be easily poured over the buttered skillet and cover its entire surface. Before you begin frying pancakes, make sure to heat the skillet well-it should be hot. Add just a few drops of butter on the surface of skillet, to enable easy turning of pancake, and then pour one measure of pancake mixture to skillet, fry until you notice that edges are lifting. Then turn the panacake over, and fry from the other side. Then put pancake on the plate, butter the skiller and repeat the procedure until you use entire mixture.
What is amount of mixture for one pancake? It really depends on the size of skillet you are using, and how thin you want them to be. This recipe, as I have said, is for European pancakes, i.e. crepes, and they are supposed to be quite thin. You will get the idea from this picture. Enjoy!
