ENGLISH PANCAKE BATTER
English pancakes are thinner than American style ones, in fact I think they are almost crepes. The traditional topping in the UK is fresh lemon juice and sugar or jam but you can also fill them with something savoury.

Steps:
- Melt a knob of butter in a pan, then leave to cool down.
- Meanwhile, place the flour in a bowl.
- Break the eggs into the bowl and pour in the milk.
- Mix until it turns into a smooth batter.
- Stir in the now cooled melted butter and leave to stand for about half an hour.
- This lets the starch expand and makes the finished pancake lighter.
- When you're ready to cook the pancakes, melt a little more of the butter along with a bit of oil in a frying pan.
- A non-stick pan is the best.
- When it is quite hot pour 1/4 cup batter into the pan.
- Swirl it until it covers the pan and you have a thin, even layer that should set almost immediately.
- After about a minute it should be ready to flip.
- Cook for 30 seconds on the other side and then tip onto a plate.
- Repeat until you have used up all the batter.
