PANCAKES

I grew up on these pancakes in Saudi. Definitely a must have at least a few times in Ramadan for "sehri", especially during the last 10 days. We would stay up all night praying, then we would indulge in these yummies just before sunrise, having loads of fun making fun shapes!

Easiest pancakes you will make!

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup self raising flour
1 cup milk
1 egg

METHOD:

-Mix it all up in one big bowl with a whisk, to a smooth batter.
-Preheat a nonstick pan on a low flame, using a drop of oil and a kitchen roll leaf, smear the oil all around the pan
-Keeping the heat still on low; using a ladle pour a ladle of batter in the middle of the pan and let it spread naturally into a nice circle.
-Let it cook on one side until you see little bubbles form on the surface once there is a healthy covering of bubbles, it is ready to flip over to the other side, let it cook on the second side for around 30 seconds flip it over, it should start being golden on the second side as well, if so then it is ready to remove and serve, if not then flip back on to second side and cook for a further 10-15 seconds or until golden colouring appears. 
-Serve hot, with your favourite toppings.

**(alternately you can add a couple of table spoons of sugar to the batter and eat plain)**

top tip:
you can make this pancake into different fun shapes (or letters) by using a spoon. Spoon on batter into different shapes on to the pan, and cook as normal, my kids love to "eat" their initials! Great bit of Sunday morning fun!
