stack of pancakes with salted salmonMakes: 12-14 pancakes

What You’ll Need:

  • 100g plain flour
  • 2x large eggs
  • 300ml milk
  • Oil, to fry

To serve

  • Jif lemon juice
  • Smoked salmon
  • Cream cheese
  • Black pepper

What To Do:

  • Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl then whisk in the beaten eggs, incorporating any bits of flour from around the edge of the bowl as you do so.
  • Gradually whisk in the milk until the batter is smooth.
  • Add the oil to a non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Pour surplus oil into a bowl and keep for remaining pancakes. When the pan is really hot, turn the heat down to medium and pour in a ladle/spoon of batter. Immediately tilt the pan from side to side to evenly coated the base with batter.
  • Cook for 1-2 minutes, using a spatula to lift the sides to see if it is golden brown. Flip and cook on the other side for a few seconds until also golden. Transfer to a plate.
  • Spread cream cheese over the pancake and season with black pepper. Lay smoked salmon over the cream cheese and add a splash of Jif lemon. Fold the pancake in half, then in half again to create a pancake pocket. Add garnish and serve.
