"Certainly these days part of the fun of cooking pancakes is in the tossing"

[Lee H]

Imperial units are easier

Nah, Metric are easier

Well, today I am having more pancakes as I've decided I going to eat them when I want to eat them and just not on pancake day alone.

As such I am already loosing my belt a notch to accomidate the extra weight I'll gain

I did that years ago and ended up overdosing on them and got fed up with them. Didn't touch them for about two years after. Let's hope you're more restrained than I was.

No one remembered to add that to make the best pancakes you should leave the mixture to stand in the fridge for a few hours before cooking them!

[Bob Crabtree]

We kicked off with savoury pancakes.

The contents that we prepared for this course were:

* A carbonara-like dish made of greens, cream, cheese and garlic

* Fried eggs

* chopped up (then fried) potatoes, bacon, courgettes, onions and tomatoes

* A very slim polish sausage (forgot the name) - I'll check it and report back if anyone expresses interest

And the above proved sensational!

For afters, for those that could eat anything more any time soon, there were pancakes with a mix-and-match selection of toppings/fillings:

* Squeezed lemons and oranges
* Maple syrup
* Honey
* Banana
* Blueberries
* Dark chocolate (melted over hot water with double cream).

Oh, and my recipe for the "British" pancake mix we used (and which is identical for Yorkshire puddings, incidentally) was:

* 4oz plain flour
* Half pint milk
* 2 eggs

Using only half the milk, whisk it all together with electric blender for about 20 seconds, then add the rest of the milk and whisk for a further 20 secs.

Leave for half an hour before using the mix.

Cheers

Bob
