English Translation


This is the way my grandmother used to make pancakes and as this is the way I saw them made as I grew up this is how I tend to make them to this day!

Ingredients:

300ml milk
2 eggs
30g butter, melted and cooled
225g plain flour
pinch of salt
drop of vinegar
75g sugar
currants

Method:

Combine the salt, sugar and flour in a bowl. Beat the eggs in a separate bowl then add the butter and milk and beat to combine. Mix thoroughly before adding a drop of vinegar. Now add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, a little at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Beat everything together to a smooth batter then grease a pan over high heat with a little butter.

Add about half a cup of the pancake mix and roll the pan to make a thin pancake then scatter a handful of currants over the top. Fry for about 2 minutes per side, or until well browned. Transfer to an oven to keep warm as you finish frying the remainder of the pancakes.
